Hey guys I just bought a new spur gear a j concepts silencer 78t couldn't get an 81t, im going to put an 8.5 in got a 7.5 venom motor in at the moment with a 20t pinion just wondering what pinion should i use with the smaller spur gear

cheers

i just finished my kit and raced this past sat and i had to keep rebuilding my ft shocks the piston kept blowing off any info on why would be great what type of shocks to use what about the kyosho shocks or what other ones would work

Tried out hart sons setup and really make my car a handful. Loose and oversteer. I think I will try the worlds finland setup next. Not much differences tho.:roll eyes:

uN4RACING! could I possibly get a look at your setup sheet and try that out?



Make sure you are popping them on and hearing a nice click when the get on, double check with your nail to see if it is loose, make sure the right e clips are used and your shock shaft is ok and not bent or worn out. The stock shocks on this car are fine and work really nicely.

Guy,

what are your track conditions?...I'm running the Cavalerie set up from the reedy race....

can anybody give feedback on the lrp x20 yet?

Saw one run this weekend, not impressed, stick with reedy or trinity

i run the lrp x12 6.5 and its fast as heck, i was just trying to see if the had more torque

Just my observation, he was gettin murderd on big straitaway

The transmission gears seem to mesh really rough. I used 1 drop of diff lube on each gear, they just seem loud and rough. Is that normal? Will they smooth out? I double checked the shims, made sure the transmission housing wasn't too tight.

how do you have it shimmed?

As per the manual. On the CVA that goes into the gearbox, there is one shim on the outside of each bearing. On the Outdrives, there are two shims insided the bearing on the long side and 4 shims inside the bearing on the short side. Is that what your looking for?

If you just built it, it's going to be a little gritty. Just comes that way from the molds from the factory. Stick a 6.5 in there and grab some throttle, it'll smooth out.

ya, if its a new car then your good, just put a new set of gears in my car per the manual and it stripped them in 2 minutes, but i have some miles on my car too...now im running 6 on one side a 2 on the other

Thanks fastchevy and Tyler, that makes me feel better.

Other than that, the build is going great.

What do you guys think ??
