Yea. Oddly I left the steering link as short as possible and it worked out to have equal throws on the radio to get full lock in both directions. So I left it!

Default wow...
Does this chassis drive as sexy as it looks?

The TRF101 was a major dissapointment.

I bought the F60 body. I will fit it tonight and see what needs to be moved. I had to move the wing back about 2mm to make sure it didnt hit the spur. I also trimmed the wing on the left side so i could adjust the rear end as high as it could go.

i've tried the F2012 body on the VBC , it fit but without the narrow sides. (or maybe with a large trimming for the body post supports )

Default Spring Rates for VBC Flash
Can anyone tell me what color spring goes with the H-M-S that is on the setup sheet?? If you look at the above posted set up by Dave under the front spring and roll spring it says either H, M, or S. Which spring that comes with the kit correlates to the correct setting??

Silver - Soft
Gold - Medium
Black - Hard

This applies for both front springs and side springs.

Thank you Korey for your response

Per Dave's set up above what Green spring are we referring to? Can someone give me a part number of this spring please.
