I'm salivating from your teaser about the layout but not so sure about the bumps thing. Perhaps the organizers wanted to simulate what it was like to race in Brazil? Or maybe someone out there is trying to prove a point in that a bumpy layout may just give the RRR's an advantage?

You said you were running the alfa 2.1
On lower grip tracks you may want to try running a stratus 2.1
I feel the stratus 2.1 especially good in going into medium to fast corners. You may lose a little in the tighter parts. But it is very neutral wich helps in lower grip situations.

Ummm, don't see any RRRs around here practising... Perhaps I need to look harder but most who run Kyosho run the FW05R.

Split into two how? Pictures?
Its probably wear and tear ... confirm by looking at the pieces ...

Yes, let D and Crashed see it. I think D is right, it must be worn out for it to break.
BRCA 2005 Rules
If you intend to race in the BRCA Nationals next year, the 2005 Rules Amendments for 235mm, Scale Rubber and 200mm Scale Touring classes is now available at 3hobby.com for download.
Sup guys havent been on here for quite some time. Got a question. You know the lifting method to see if the car is tweaked by lifting the center rear or front of the car? Well I put a mark on the threaded shocks so that I know both front and rear shocks are getting the same compression(or ride height). But why is it that in the manual it tells you to adjust the spring rate diagonal from where the tire lifts off first? If I were to do this then one of the shocks will have a higher ride height than the other side so that would mean the car would still be tweaked Example: If the left rear wheel lifts off first then you are suppose to make the front right shock tighter which would throw of the front shocks because one of them will have a more compressed spring(higher ride height). Sorry if you dont understand, had a long day and my grammar is getting worse. LOL

Tweak ... that confusing topic again. We all sort of decided here that the manual's method is not quite right ...
You need to find MarkP27's post and then download the 710FAQ from his signature in the post.
Otherwise go here and download.

I think the FAQ acts as a supplement to further complement, improve and make easy the manuals method of tweaking.
Speaking of the FAQ, I think it's time to revise it seeing some new option parts surfaced. I think a section on bodyshells is also timely.
Wake up Mark and steer away from the RRR !

I nearly updated the FAQ the other week, but I wasn't sure if it was worth it or not - no one seems to read it these days

What I should have said is the following :-
"If you want to be really fussy like D, download the 710 FAQ and then do your chassis tweak the D-way as detailed in section 6.14.4!"
