So i have an SF2 which uses those pieces and it would make sense that would be the method to change track width. Except those pieces are all the same length. So what is the method for changing...

I picked the car up used a while back so I am not entirely sure if it is a pro or not. It does do MHS though. I was struggling a bit with my HFAY car at 94mm with ASF and brushed, and had build the...

Switching to the EVO was the single best change I have made for lap times. The car is night and day faster then my ASF cars and even my VE. None of my other cars have stacked FETS so that may be a...

EMU you know way more then me, but could it just be FETS? If it still has normal reverse, and I assume steering, and the issue is in forward, I wonder if replacing the forward FETS would fix it?

I would estimate the fronts around 26/27mm. I run about the same on my LM EVO and no traction roll. My 98mm VE setup I am closer to the 22mm, but its more I got a little crazy with the truer. ...
