i this is Tom's mom he is back home, they removed a large polyp, he has a large hiatal hernia, which can cause gastric reflex. I have to do it again in 3mos because of the large polyp removed from his colon.

Fill diff with delicious root beer and run it tight.

Do people still only run 5 minute quals and mains? I guess locally we only run 6-min quals but the mains are 8 minutes normally. On light turnouts we go to 10 minutes. Fun.
But yea in the mod car i think use 4-5 batteries worth of practice at 13-15 minutes each battery. Not every person does of course. It is difficult with the newer tires to have them ready to use when needed. Only cause i don't have the time anymore. I get to show up hour and a half before qualifying. Anyway enough crying. I'd like to find a quick process for breaking these tires in.

As a site note for practicing/club racing on astro, the dBoots Multibytein A compound is a great low-wear tire, I used my last set half a season. Performance is not as good as yellow Minispike2s, but its better bang for the buck. In B compound with a soft insert, it is a great rain tire.
Sorry man. I was not referring to Shumacher tires. I've never actually seen Shumacher tires.

On a different note...I got my first win in mod last weekend. Granted not all our suoer fast guys were there, but there were still fast guys there. Back and forth battle for a lot of the race. At the 7:30 mark the leader made a mistake and I inherited the lead back, and held on for the last lap and half. It was a good day. And this was my third weekend with the B5M.

Why are they running the rear camber mount upside down and shimming up 3mm? Why not flip over and only shim up 1mm?

Only thing I can think of is so they can lower it quickly without having to flip the mount

Because that would be 3mm not 1mm. To achieve 1mm or 0 or negative, you run it -2 and add washers as needed.

I had my gear diff installed and filled with 2K for the race Sunday. It felt good to me but I wasn't pushing hard enough to unload the inside wheel so I don't know if it would have started to diff out or not.

I only finished 3rd in the b main but that was mostly due to me being overly careful. The buggy was definitely capable of finishing higher than the position I drove it to.

Dumb question. ......I've always ran my diff with the screw head opposite side of the moter plate(like the manual says) now I was told that is wrong.So what side should it be on ???

What side should the screw head be on for the 3gear?
