This class has so much to offer in both fun and cost. I thought the builders would have their cars up to speed by now, they're not getting any track time it seems. Wish they'd get a solid european unit so as to get in some high speed R&D.
Thanks for getting this idea planted. We do wander off subject at times, but I like that 2wd racer from all over are looking on and add good stuff in from time to time.

Heh
And last year I splurged and bought a new monitor for my computer. I've noticed with this getting older crap that the eyesight isn't what it used to be, so I got a TV with monitor hookups and now can view things in all its 32 inch glory. Don't have to squint as much...now all I have to do is get new glasses so I can make out the yellow and blue blur at the end of the backstraight that I think is my car....

Just got done ordering the diff. As the resident guinea pig, I'll let everyone know when it arrives and how well/if it fits. I'll do the initial mock-up in my Edam Razor to see what changes, if any, are required....here's hoping it gets the job done....

Well
..so you going to build a G10 diff equipped Edam??....just remember ...locked out arms are considered a NO-NO....Phil...i just placed an order tonight from MSC.....after my first order they gave me a code to save 25%...might want to check and see if they gave you one for future orders...saved close to 30 bucks.......the place rules...have all kinds of stuff for us metal heads..

I'm half tempted to lock out the arms because I don't see what difference it would make, and it wouldn't be much different movement wise than the front end of a Moto. However...my preference is to make an aluminum piece to tie into the chassis itself for solidity, so that's the way I'll go. Strip out the front end, replace it with one of mine...all pretty minor details, really. I'm not real mobile this week and tons to do but at the very least I can guarantee I'll have the build before the GLC. Any chance I could get you as one of the victims to run it a bit and test it?
I love working EVER Saturday)..but will hopefully be there
for finals to watch/ help on Sunday.....maybe some year they
will lay me off and I can then race... Lol

Got my new WRC cars in today. It's a neat car and I'll have mine in Portage. While I cried about a tax I had to pay and the cost of wiring them money, well it all was forgotten when I opened the box. At this point I say I don't care, even if it cost as much as a 4wd car ( it didn't ), It's not a 4wd, it's a 2wd pan and that a good thing!

I'm probably wrong but I swear I remember rounds of qualifying on Friday as well. Besides, I thought all the electricians were selling copper on the side...hmm (lol)
