Castor Blocks

Jason,

are you planning on making some Castor Blocks in alloy?

If so I'd like to see them in BMI satin grey, similar to the IRS ones so you can just undo the 4 screws and change between 5 & 10 degrees without the need to change the castor blocks

IRS items

Hey buddy,

We will be making alot of new stuff this year including castor blocks. I think you guys will really enjoy what we are bringing to the table this year. Those castor blocks are daves design so i will leave them to him. Dave spends alot of time on developement and i think he deserves to have the only ones like them. Our car will accept those if you like them.

Hey guys,

I heard this afternoon that the DB12R's were running real good at the gate. Doseck was sitting 4th in mod and Xavier was 10th in stock. I will get an update later.

Yeah.

Looks like after 2 rounds Doseck is now in 7th spot in mod 1/12th and Craig Xavier is sitting 9th. Looks like some serious competition. Cool part is that both guys just got there cars about a week or so ago and they are already landing top 10 spots. I cant wait to see when they get some time with the car.

The DB12R's looked good yesterday at "The Track" in Gaithersburg, MD. Casey Young had his working really good in 19T and Wes Lion had his working really good stock. Craig (Casey's NYC Buddy) finished putting electronics in his at the track. By the end of the night had his really looking good.

Jason, I noticed that the holes in the chassis where the front arms mount are a little off. The front two holes are 0.007 closer to each other than the rear set of holes. It seems to have a bit of toe-in on the arms. Not too big of a deal, but is this how it's supposed to be?
