Attention Senyor 'Tommi Makkinen' (alam ko meron kang project related dito).

hi mark! just set the differential right (from full-lock, pull back 1/4), and have the 3 kinds of friction damper grease (soft, medium, hard) available for your set-up adjustments. yung lang

mark...bring it on saturday and let oldskul and joel impart their "magic" on your car. It took them just 5 minutes to make my 103 run properly. Plus they gave me a lot of homework...which I did over the weekend.

oldskul/joel...the attached pics are dedicated to you and your tips...

rough...thanks for the thread.

To all those interested in building a kit...mine is an example of an out-of-box 103RM M-body build. The kit has all the decals for a pseudo-Mclaren body and you can use a single color scheme. It's so simple to build that I bought this one after lunch on a Friday and had it running for the Saturday race. The only items I did not finish where the decals and the helmet.

In other words...you can build the chassis quickly and spend the rest of your time on the body and helmet livery.

hey joel share mo naman sa lahat kung saan mo nakuha yung F1 body shells mo para lahat naka F1 bodies na. kamusta ba yung shell, swak ba sa chassis?

kailangan natin i-share ito kasi medyo hard to find na yun F1 bodies. it will help those na naka-Le Mans body shells pa. at the same time, mas maganda kung marami tayong body shells para we can switch teams/team mates hahaha.

post some pictures of the body shell ha

chie...unfortunately a couple of us bought the last kits from Lil's. I'm sure Lil's can order a kit for you or if you know someone going to HK there are lots in the stores over there. There are 2 body types...the "M" (like Mark's and mine) and a "T" that I haven't seen here yet but both run on the 103 chassis.

It's also possible that Lil's already reordered coz of the sudden interest.

joel...baka mabalita na nagkaroon ng agawan sa Toys-r-Us, hehehehe. I was thinking of using liquid paper on the "Best" or writing a "W" over the "B"...but I figured it would be a nice homage to Tamiya's designers to use their decals. Hahahaha.

Neil, mine is the T type body pala. It has the low nose. Got it sa HK.

Check trinoma, last Saturday may isa pang RM dun (M Type Body). Unless may kunuha na din. I went to makati kanina, sabi ni Josie, pati yung old stock nya na 103 may kumuha na, hahaha!
