The gear cover had a broken bottom screw eyelet. So many of the current buggies have a harder plastic cover. Will get a new one and give it a shot again. My car was used when I got it and had a couple things I am working out. But the car was a very good first night out.
David- great looking buggy. Color scheme looks very nice! Who does your paint?

I paint my own bodies, but can't take credit for the paint as it came with the used roller I picked up. Not sure who did it, but gonna try and keep the same scheme.

Try not to overtighten the screws. I just snug em. Maybe a bit of threadlock will help so they don't back out.

I have it all written down at home, but had a pic of the standard length car on the scales- 1675g with shorty pack, alum front bulkhead, alum rear hubs, and some Cream weights up front. Could probably easily be under 1600 with all plastic parts.

Our TrakPower packs are 4400's so likely on the heavy side for a shorty. There is about 60g of Cream brass on it, alum rear hubs probably add 30-40g, and the car has stock steel turnbuckles still. Your target weight is easily do able I think- the cf chassis takes about 60g off alone. We also have a full size servo in it.

And what is the purpose? If your in the 1500 or even the 1400 range how much time off your laps are you saving?

Hey guys. At my last race meet I was screwing in the front pivot ball on the inner of the front link and it shattered. I needed to use pliers to screw it out.. So is there a mod you guys are using to go better? Changing brands? Or was this a freak accident and just buy another TD one?
Cheers
