you can chop down the nut and the screw and the tbar. should be ab le to squeeze a 35 into the car.
the fdr of a 1/12 is 1:1 it is direct drive. so we use roll out. tire size is how we control speed.
this weekend J and I ran 31 with 46mm tire and tim ran 34 with 44mm I think
to set toe, Tim tells me to put pressure on the back of the wheel before we check it. just use one of those hudy sheet that most have on the pit board. and set about .5 to 1 degree toe in.
on Mike's track we do not change the battery location much in an L4, just shoe goo the things pointing toward the rear. you can always pull them off if you need to move them up for mod.
you may want to run a 100 spur if you want more top end, but then we usually run 2 screws to get the motor far enough forward.

Just to make sure . . . you are saying to mount the battery trays so that the batteries are shifted back, correct? And when you said you usually run two screws you are referring to the t-bar mounting screws, correct? Thanks for the help yang.
