I like the look of this track with its nice curves - the other two are a little bit too "square", if you know what I mean. But still, nice selection of tracks to drive on

but anyways... this track looks like it may need some rather tall gears... it is the longes track in the country.

SO I guess nobody knows where to get pre made 800 batteries from. I'm not that good at soldering. I definitely don't want to take a chance with batteries!

Just finished my Mazda 6. I notice one thing is that dont cut the body post too short like mine. Notice that its not sticking out of the body. The lenght of it right now fits the Stratus fine but its too short for the Mazda 6. By looking at this body and shape I think its really nice how low it sits. Cant wait until I take it to the track

Sorry to be sexist!!!!!!!
I see there is a female on the mugen forum who thought the 710 was hard to build compared to a mugen, go figure!!!!!!! 
I just know I'm going to get my head bit off for this one.

On the day of this test the front/rear wear was pretty even. I started with a 0.5 split (fronts smaller) and ended up with equal tire sizes.
With same size tires on the 710 you have a little overdrive. If you use more overdrive the turn in (using a one way) is better as the fronts try to slow the car when you get off throttle. Out of corners you will most likely get a little more stability/push than with a 1:1 ratio. Because of the tendency to get oversteer into corners a large front overdrive does not work on slippery tracks. Than you will be better of using a front diff for stability.
In very tight twisty tracks an overdrive might be helpfull. We'll see if a 21 pulley is a worthwile option.
There are no plans yet so no need to ask for release dates
