YEP at first I didn't wanna get cause I thouht I could handle it with the wasp, but my friend went ahead and geared it up as to where he could pass me on the straight before the braking point, the only problem he has is the braking before the turn in which I always kick his but... LOL... anyway I want it to compete against the serpents 235mm jajaja just for bashing aroun like with the lola body

Hi guys,

Does anybody know when will the new novarossi .12s & sirio .12s going to be out? Also, has anyone tried the novarossi .15 NS15S5 on their car yet? I am looking for an engine for my R40. Thanks.

Default Clutch Adjust Nut

How tight should I tighten the clutch adjust nut, so the clutch engauges? Should I tighten it down so much that I have to use a wrench?
Thanks Dan

You only need to tighten the nut about .5 to 1.5 mm.

GFD- The car may be able to fit a small block .15, but .15BB surely won't fit.

Klander- Here's the pics .
