ou can also get some wheel spacers, making them out of spare Lexan from your car's body is pretty easy. Tamiya make some 0.5mm and 1mm spacers: T53646 and T53647.
These are better than offset wheel hubs in my opinion.

1. Do you run big or small tracks? How big are they? The FW05R is known to be a small track performer. Look at their FDR and they are minimum at 5.0 with the optional 39T diff crown gear.
2. What about parts support? What about trackside support?

I think the rear diff presents a problem... we were 3 serpent 710 guys at the race today and all of us had bad rear diffs; mine ended almost locked... I have my muleto car with a new diff that feels perfect but the silky smooth operation of the diff goes away too soon

Did you replace the diff balls and greased them lightly with the Mugen Super Grease?

Hearing rumours Protoform has pulled the plug on the Mazda 6 (200mm) production due to Mazda being disatisfied with the mould and shape of the lexan body.Ferrari may have also withdrawn all license permission to continue producing the Proline 360 MODENA (200mm) body. Any body know, or is it just club rumours ??

I can tell you that this man is genius
With 37F and 40R, 46T rear diff, 2.5mm tire split the car is not only easier to drive but the ability to cut the fast chicane is awesome no weaving anymore.
Start with full rear diameter(65mm) after abuot 7-8 tanks the rear became 59.5 and 57.5 in Front !!! Perfectly the same roll out with start diameter.
You MUST try this overdrive !
