Thanks Alvin. Appreciate those pics. When you mounted your Pal mounts did you just use a long srew to mount it to the topdeck? Looks like you did. The pics should help me a ton to put mine together.

ALright guys, tommorow i'm heading for Key West, I just wanna say thx for the help on the R3. A couple more questions... A thing that I gotta get is aluminum steering rack, what else? And I think i'll get the Red R3.... And I was wondering if BMI will sell the R3 chassis with the parts for the car like they do with the factory team tc3, j/w thanks! Take care guys have an awesome week! Besure to check out the movie, The Grudge, a.k.a Ju-On I cried watching it. I saw the Jap version not the U.S later!

One more question.... R3, PRO4, or TBEVOIV? Thanks... I'm J/w...... I think they are all good cars, but Which do you guys prefer?

Hey, anyone interested in a bomber shaft for an R2/R3 or some aluminum front and rear hubs?

I take it that you like the R3 Lol... Well, the Pro 4 Has won lots of stuff by Hara IDK yet. BOth shaft, BOth have aluminum, around same price, I think the pro is cheaper. Hmm... WHat do u guys think? P4 or R3?

to be honest, i like them both... but i would look at parts availability in your area... if they have Pro 4 parts on the wall, get it. if they dont have parts for either car, id probably go with the R3, mainly cause like Dave says, its tough to break! you will need to carry your own spares, but you might have to carry them no matter what car you run.

"Alex Racing - Represented by Hideo Kitazawa, this might be the big surprise in the ISTC class. Hideo finished second only to Masami but ahead of all the other top drivers at the official warm-up, a very good indication of what he's capable of! The Barracuda chassis has proven itself many times already, especially in Asia. The continuous development of the platform shows that Alex Racing are very serious and it would be really nice to see them getting a reward in form of a good result in Florida."
