Hey Stephen, I was on work experience at Metro Hobbies (On Station St) last week and they were saying that they try to get stuff in for the TRF because Aussie wholesalers don't bring TRF in and the wholesalers have got an every thing from us or nothing from us policy so it is very hard for Metro to bring stuff in for the 416, they have a couple of arms and hubs but that is about it. I actually raised the same question because that is the reason I stopped running TRF
I have also discussed this with the metro guys and it seems a real shame that they dont even have the chance to stock a TRF car even if they wanted to. Looking forward to having a race at templestowe this weekend, should be good pre vics preparation.

Ok I hav ebeen trying to find it, but have been comming up empty handed. The hot spring that everybody has been trying outdoors on their 416 is the Hara silver spring correct? I have been trying to find what the spring rating is for them. I looked on THARD's site but am unsure if the springs there are the regular HPI springs or the HARA ones. Thanks for anybody that can help me out.

The Blue, Silver and Gold are the most used ones.

Main reason I wanted to know was to see if I had anything close to try so I do not have to buy more springs.

I've used Hara springs with very good results. Better lap times over my Tamiya springs. HPI springs are nice as well. Have yet to try Silver/Blue combo. Only Gold/Silver.
