Hey Dan,
Can you please have Troy contact me or OG through email? I'm intersted in the spool, especially with the results I got from the E3.
Hopefully I will have my car this week.
Have any of you guys tried using the upper hole in the front steering hub?, if I'm not mistaken this provides you with a bit of aggressive steering or a faster reacting car, another tuning option that can be considered.
Later

Chris I have 2 cars coming 1 specifically for building the center shaft and the spool. Troy is going to be doing all the work like he did with the spools that alot of people here have for the E3. He is working with Steve @ Speedtech to carry the parts at a great price and alot easier availability. He is also working on some parts for the R3 and Yok SD.

Ray if I could figure out how to get this POS wheelchair on the airplane I might come back but you would also have to take out all that fuzzy SH** on the racing surface.
Chris- we'll see I want to see Troys parts first.
Tristan are you saying the forward hole on the steering arm? If so yes I run that most of the time. If the surface is loose I will run the rear hole on the arm. Say hi to Tom for me also. I am sure Troy is talking to OG already he still has to do the proto work on the parts for now though

Dan, will do. Plan on coming up here on June for the CTCS, Tom will be here. He made a fix pulley using the ones from the TAOx line but I have to confirm once the car is here.

T1, T1evo, evo2, now Factory car. Losi? Graphite plus, offset carriers, belts... as you can see, every car kit manufacturer changes things along the way. as people use the car, they adapt and change to what most try to run. i am currently waiting for my 415 from my local LHS... i have ran most all the normal cars, tc3, xxxs, xray, etc. and i always come back to my Tamiyas... plus, i usually like to be different than all the rest of the guys at the track!

Why go through all that trouble with the keyed oneway halfs to make a spool. Just through some JB Weld in the bearings put it together and in a few hours you have a very solid spool.

Center holes on the front shock tower
Does anyone know what the 2 holes on the front shock towers are for? 5th body post a la nitro TCs?
