The Speedway Pal drive shaft system that Steve sells, is it just right hand conversion, or does it come in a left hand version?

Steve sells motor on the left version... motor on the right version is a special order...

I didnt even realize that PAL made right hand versions anymore, I thought the Web Special drivetrains were the only ones.

I think that is correct...Web versions are the only ones with motor on the right side... unless you're JDM...and have every version available...

I'm not certain but I'm pretty sure it's for a small screw that goes in to secure the bearing, on the R2 holders it's not needed because the bearings are held in tightly by the notches on the small bevel gear.

Back from a night of "racing" not a good night at all, for the first time in something like 6months I was in the B final just couldn't get the car going nicely and the track layout was not helping one bit. On power understeer, off power oversteer, medium power not bad until it hit the sweeper at speed where the back end would occasionaly do a nice swing out. Improved things through the night but never got it nearly as good as it should be. Ahwell, a total rebuild for next week, time to start again...
