How big is the bend? If it's just 1-2 mm i wouldnt bother changing the chassies, my RRR WCE chassies is slightly bent after 2 racedays without any wall-hits and the car has never handled as good as now. When you put the stiffener on it will surely make the chassies flat again..

Also, let me know what your setup is. Are any of the other guys running V1RRR WCE? That would be great if they are. Hmmm.. Maybe the preliminary shopping list will be ready earlier than expected...

Just kidding! Just kidding!
Just for you bro, I pulled the car out of the box, took off the wheels and put it on the Hudy setup board - and you know what? My chassis is straight except the back end after the rear wheels where the back of the chassis is about 0.5mm off the board. Big deal. You guys should see some of the track acrobatics I've done with the car.
I'm surprised it doesn't look like ... a banana! I wouldn't worry about it. We're all going to get Shimo replacement chassis anyway. Right?

You got four scales? I would be suprised if you did. I would really like to know what the weight distribution is under each wheel, with and without the engine and pipe on. That will give me some weight distribution information for the knowledge base.
Thanks!

I really hope that Team Kyosho can maintain it's title at this year's ROAR Nationals. Team Mugen is awfully dangerous with those MTX-4 - and they've got another year of racing under their belt - and Mike's got all of those championship titles. Yikes!

Shock Questions
Rebound -
So far I have all the air out and no leaks, but one is a tad faster than the other. Still air in the shock?
Removal-
How is everyone popping their shocks off towers and arms?

I don't pop the shocks off the tower, I just unscrew the ball. I pop them off the bottom with my 1.5mm hex driver. It's long and thin and fits right between the arm and the cap. Just slide it in there and pry it off... carefully. Make sure you pry against the plastic cap and not the shock spring, cup or shaft. Just my method.

Yikes! we just got to keep testing because the mugen guys dont take breaks they practice day in & day out i know believe me thats why we in LV have started traveling to CALI. to practice if you want to keep it close just keep working it wont be easy some other drivers are just on a different level im behind by about 20 years but im trying good luck to all
