les - Thanks for the info!! I'm sure they will make tolerance adjustments on the next batch so this is improved.
CraigM - Almost every TC out there has a servo saver in it via the bell crank or in the kits (like Tamiya) so really a servo saver should always be used. Keep in mind too - Always try to add traction to the rear if possible when the car breaks free through a section of the track. You may have to adjust the front for other areas but unless the car is simply too bound up and stopping in the center of the corner I always try to put as much traction into the car as possible.
I don't know about a new bell crank unless they are making an aluminum version but everyone needs to keep in mind - Make the bell crank stronger and something else will have to break - Eventually the servo and then we will all be back to running servo savers anyway...lol...
Thirtybird - No problem. I have to pick up my daughter from school, drop her off at home and grab my stuff. I should be out there 2:30ish.
