Watch for any of these signs. I normally try to make the fuel line the same on both sides and give a good amount of room.
A good example of fuel tubing length and use is haras R40.

Just about everything on his car is there. As well as some nice chassis shots. Im going to be mimicking his car as much as possible.
Either that or will be buying the 2004 edition kit soon.

Yeah next time remember the golden rules of photography.
Light , Focus , Center Object and click. If you dont have light then bump up the exposure and get a tripod.
Or simply, take the car outside on a sunny day.

Klander- The cheap way I found to get into 8th onroad is that PRP onroad car. However, some places aren't big on parts. I said NVM and just stay with the R40. I keep getting tempted into 8th onroad, but without a real car and the cost for an 8th is crazy. All the upgrades I got for the R40 are reasonably priced so thats fine for me.

Hark I'll try to send you a video clip of my R-40 with the astra body, I;m bashing infront of my house, but I lost the clutch weights and spring and didn't even notice, I thought the clutch had gone loose because the screws was a bit unscrewed...

Hey fellow r40ers, I'm getting close. I just need the right freakin' clutch bell bearing and I can start breaking in. I know some of you think I should shim the motor up, but I did. Nothing I could do about that. I don't have money for a new motor yet! The yokomo header works great, and after shimming up, there's enough clearance above the pulley.
I have a question, how have you guys routed your wiring? I have mine pretty close to my servo horn, and I'm worried about wearing through the wires.
Also what do you guys like to use for your throttle/brake servo?
