Hi guys, I've just finished building my G4S and wow! i'm really impressed with the packaging and the manual.. and the price too!
I got some questions though, aside from the tight ballcups, (i'm guessing a few laps at the track will remedy this) do i have to dremel the arms? it has some bind in them right now..
How do you disconnect the front anti-roll bars? the blades seem to be too long for it to disengage..
thanks in advance guys..

What a great run for Dario and the G4S at the 200mm world championships!!!! The G4S has proven itself as a highly competitive car in a very short time. If you don't believe me ask Serpent! LOL
Everyone that put their new G4S kit together has the same first impression --- WOW! Don't care the language, I see the WOW's in many languages every week!
So Hoist the flag all you G4/G4S care owners, we won't be the minority long!!
And for those outsiders looking in, contact us we can make you a proud RC driver of a G4S today!!!!
Fotr the person building the kit and talking about the A Arms. Yes they need some soft touches with the sander. The front lower A arms on the bottom side there is sometimes a little excess plastic and it can hit the chassis. So sand there and ends if need to make a smooth movement. The upper rears sometimes can use the same touch for smoother movement. And I forgot the other question but hope this helps.

By all means you should experiment as much as possible as to what works best for you and your track/driving style/abilities.
Cheers,
Mike.

Can anyone point me to a setup guide. I know the basics of setup, but some things are different on the onroad car than 1/8th buggy. For example, I don't know what the purpose of the black plastic adjusters is on the anti-sway bars. I see that when I move them, they move the bar. Is this to balance them or what? I don't get it.

i think the black plastic peice you mentioned is to equalizes the arms when you set the anti roll bar

Bundy_Bear: just wondering.. what happened to Dario during the Finals

Hi All,
Firstly I would like to thank TM and all those who helped make the trip to oz possible.
Things didnt quite go to plan for us, and it was a huge learning curve ! We were fairly competitve early in the week, but as the grip came up we actually went slower ! I have never experienced grip like that, at the Euro's in Heemstede the grip was similar to at home, so our set ups worked well, but this was all new !
Thanks to Dario & his crew they helped us out with their set up, and that helped, but in my quarter final I hit a stationary car at the first corner and ended in the grass, I didnt know at the time that this had also tucked the body down and so i fell off at the end of the straight too, ooops ! Once the body had worn to its new shape, my car was good, but by then it was too late.......
Dario did a fantastic job in qualy, and had to make his final round count, no pressure ! He was very unlucky in the final, and definately would have been in with a chance of a good result
Well done to Keisuke Fukuda, for the win, he drove a faultless race, and was there when Chris had his radio problems, it was a pretty eventfull race to watch.
