I assume you'd run these without the optional 1 mm spacer on the axle then.
Will this be a running change to the kit, or will it stay with the 66 mm?
Do you recommend the 66 or 67 mm for the laydown conversion?
Thanks as always, Frank!

Frank....I finally got a chance to run my 3.0 at our first club race of the season. The car felt good. Great job by the TLR team on this one. I have built the car to the manual specs, is there any suggestions you may have to make it even better.....we run on mixed carpet over hard smooth packed clay/dirt with only 6 to 8 inch jumps and a couple banked turns....we have a 1 - 2 degree negative banked sweeper leading to our 120' straight.
Thanks for any advice

but all of these parts will tremendously transform your car"
- laydown trans kit (puts the weight low and forward for front traction)
- alum rear hubs
- stiffer rear spring, softer front
- alum front camber block
- 19mm ride height
- remove ball studs from the steering spindles, as to eliminate the bump steer and allow for some tighter steering on carpet
- serpent SRX2 gear diff with 2 packs of kyosho diff shims to shim it to a perfect fit
- CF front shock tower
- alum servo mounts
- alum steering rack
all of this stuff will help stiffen up the car and increase steering and preceision you need on carpet, plus it gets the weight more on the front wheels because you have plenty of forward bite, you need steering.
the car pushes a lot unless you set it up for carpet.
this is the exact reason i sold my 3.0 and got a XRAY XB2 CE because it comes stock ready to go for carpet, and with the 3.0 i would have to put more money into it than buying the XRAY kit. the TLR is still my favorite 2wd clay car, but i haven't tried the XRAY XB2 DE yet so who knows.

Davidka & Callaway- Are you guys using the optional spacer from the 2.0 kit on the 3.0? I just double checked my manual and it looks like that spacer was deleted from the 3.0 kit. I built mine per the manual and haven't had any problems, but am always curious what others are doing.
Thanks.
