Seriously, I had two very enjoyable days building mine after getting home from work. Maybe my most enjoyable car that I have built in a very very long time. Get it ordered, you won't be disapointed.

I have a 112t 64p PRS gear on mine. It has the holes already in it for the inside motor screw and has the TC mounting design. In other words, it has 6 holes around the inner diameter. Not sure of the part number.

Why would you be sorry for asking a question?

yes Franko I noticed the same. The ackerman appears to only be a coarse adjustment on the steering block !!! So when you change the wheelbase you get a different ackerman. Only flaw I've seen in the car... and I've been looking hard !

Jake and Franko,

The car is without a doubt right up there with any current car. Only time will tell if the two positions are enough, but if it isn't the solution is only one option part away. The car is very well designed and feels solid in my opinion. You guys know me and you know that I am not a guy that talks big about something normally, but I am very excited about this car. I plan on being in Monroe this weekend and you guys can get a closer look there at mine.

So far the few people who have run this car says that it steers and handles well. It also just won a race in HK I believe, which I hope to hear more details about but this is a good beginning.

Steve
