is there a big difference between that and soft t bar

Metla

I do not know, But I would guess its had more R&D put into it due to the feedback of F104 owners, which probably explains the name they have given it.

FREAKAH

It has a "U" shaped cut around the center pivot screw which would allow more flex front to back. I would think it would have more twisting flex too.

Has anybody tried it?

I raced this weekemd on an asphalt track and noticed a few people had milled their tires down to a smaller diameter. Does anyone know the benefit of this and possibly how to do it without a lathe??

Then he came allong this:



And voila! New option is born.

Out of curiosity, what does the double o-ring do?

I'm guessing it controls the rate at which the car rolls on the t-plate, but that's about as far as i can process it...

And while i'm thinking of it.... has anyone tested various o-rings of thickness, diameter and composition? From working at an auto parts store i know that fuel-injection o-rings (orange) seem to be of a denser material than regular o-rings (black).

Barry White

U geussed right. Sometimes things are just as simple as they seem. Of course you can play with different O-ring materials.

FREAKAH

I didn't mention nothing 'bout R&D!


Anyways, with Tamiya selling it, at least it's more available to the masses compared to the hard to get Squat pieces.

Oops! Wanted to quote Metla. Anyhow, now it is legal for TCS.

I wonder if someone could help me find a dealer that might have part#13455372 (Wheel Stopper) in stock. I've tried Googling it but keep coming up short.

Tamiya is currently out of stock and I've stupidly sheared it while putting a wheel on.

Any help would be appreciated...
