-Battery in the middle
-Gearing 30/88

I assume the rest is right since I ran the RTR "JB" version

does anyone have a starting point for a novak 10.5 at trackside ?
Maybe PW can help since hes been there and knows the size of the track..
i think its something like 100x45 ??
also dbl pink all around or lilac and yellows for a 10.5?

I have seen that a rollout of 57mm is a good place to start for that motor on that size track...thats where I will start tomorrow.
I will let you all know what I figure out gearing wide late tomorrow.
I have posted a roll out spread sheet on the Tech Info page. It has two tables, one metric and one in inch measurements. If you run a diffrent size spur gear just type it in and the entire table will re-calculate all the roll outs

Not very often. There is not a lot to go wrong on this car. We rebuild the center shock if we feel air in it. We re-do the damper tubes after a dozen races or so. They are 100% delrin so they do not get that grey goo that you get from aluminum tubes.

Thats good!
The diffs and all that dont need much re building?
I will be racing on carpet, so theres no dirt or anything

Well, the car is not indestructable.... But then again hitting a wall at the end of a 90 foot straight away will do that to any car...
Up to then the car was kicking ass...
I'll post pics tomorrow.. It's ugly..... The receiver antenna got wrapped around the GT7 capacitor inside the car and shut down.... Hit the wall about 30-35 MPH..... ( New stock motor, 31 pinion and 94 spur on lap 7 ) The center pivot ball housing on the rear pod got the worse of it... The 2 flex plates also got shattered.....
Jason, I'll be placing an order on Monday.... And making DAM sure the wiring, I was planning on changing the ESC and receiver tomorrow is cleaned up...
