For those of you that are using the schu ballcups w/ the tamiya shocks, are you cutting the ball cups down like what we did with the tamiya ones?

2. On the edge and will get loose if pushed to hard (lots of oversteer). This setup will be fastest, but won't allow for any mistakes. It will give you those fast single laps, but very hard to be consistent lap to lap and qualifier to qualifier. Very popular for drivers like Masami, Hara etc.
Recently I have been testing and racing with #2 trying to really control my driving. Most people that try my more recent setups tend to over drive them and loose traction. Plus my local track is very high traction for rubber tires

Anyone know of a larger sway bar that will fit the front of the Mi2, thicker than the yellow/1.7mm?

Hey Marcos,
How much room was there to fit the GTB in?? Cause it looks like it's a fair size and won't fit in too easily? Did you you have to stand up the reciever or anything??

If you look close, his reciever is on top of the servo.....
I saw Fernado had the thing shoehorned in on the bottom plate...

hey kid tt-01, puttin your receiver on the top deck is fine is just raises your centre of gravity
