Here is my results from the weekends racing:

Buggies A main I finished 4th. It was an awesome race. My shock came loose in the race so that took some position. At least I finished.
Truggies I did not finish my race. My Vspec died on me. I was leading the race only to let this engine spoil it for me. This is my first Vspec as I wanted to have my own experiences. I must say after 6 litres of fuel my Vspec has major wear on the crank. Actually IMO its toast. This engine makes awesome power but it makes a good paper weight. That will be my last Vspec.

We also had our championship results.
Uexpectedly I came 4th in the Buggies and 3rd in the truggies for 2006.

I must say for my first year of racing I am very proud.
It only gets better.

By the way it looks like I might be getting me a TeamMagig M1-B as part of the wining team.
Have you guys seen the latest.

what i meant was that they are too expensive for their purpose. i believe what they do is when your diff rotates faster, it will tighten up and therefore limit opposing wheel rotation. essentially, as the diffs spin faster, you get a similar result as steadily increasing the weight of your diff oil.

quick question. with the ackerman adjustments what do the three positions on the bellcrank do?

there are three screw holes forward middle and back? does the forward hole give more entry steer or exit steer? i am used to the mugen mtx4 abc ackerman, is it similar to this?

-Closest to center of car gives more steering on entry

-Middle hole gives more in corner steering

-Closest to front bumper gives more steering on exit
