Only if in a 4wd class!! !/5 scale roar rules specify 2wd I believe. I'm not sure about international but I think it would be the same.

I've been reading the assembly instructions for EVO 08 and note on "Position 5 A" that it calls for using "securing laquer" to mount the pins. What is "securing laquer"?
Tnx, jack

You may need to hit up Frank Killam or VS modelsports for that one....
Or Victor maybe able to help you if he looks in the forums.
My guess is thread lock??? Wish I can help you but don't have a FG EVO08...

================================================== ========
"Thread locker" is frequently mentioned in the instructions, so this is different.
Thanks for responding. jack

I'm putting my Evo 8 together this weekend---if I can find out--I'll let you know what they are referring to. You could also call the VS Modelsport phone line and ask them. 818 888-9050

tread locker = loctite blue.
you can get it at any auto parts store & make you use it at all the screws or you car will be falling apart.

thanks,

Thanks guys; I know about and use Loctite, but this is different.

Why?

Hello fellow drivers. I just got into 1/5 scales and ended picking up a mcd rally. Now since it's awd I won't qualify for the glarcrc series correct. Would converting my car to rwd qualify me to race or maybe get points deducted for having awd?
