I assume that is the "sellected" item??? And a question for Jason, I guess I don't know what the ball stud length would be for the center shock. Can you post the length's or maybe better yet, just use the length # in the sellection box. And I do sort of agree that being able to send this info through email or save it should be supper easy with out additional software. This is an awesome start! On behalf of all..... thanks!

Yeah, but welcome to the wacky world of convenient to create .pdf files. They're the hot ticket to have as stock forms that can be user-filled on the machine but then you need software to store them, etc. We ran into this problem when the Multiple put real estate forms online. The RIGHT way to do it is buy the 'for sale' version of Adobe (which also allows you to create .pdf's etc) but that's pretty big dough for the average home user. Now there are these free-ware add-ons that get around the need for the Adobe. So, you can print forms and keep 'em in your notebook, If you want computer access to your forms you can either buy the full Adobe which allows you to save pretty much directly, or you can get the free-ware you were pointed at that is ABSOLUTELY painless to download (even I was able to do it), has a very small footprint (in terms of memory used), and really does work pretty well.

Or YOU come up with an alternative.

redlion, whats up with your diff ? what are the white things on each side of the spur gear ? I am pretty new to 12th scale and i havent ever seen anything like that

They are the Kimbrough gear cover's. They work great on carpet and on the asphalt they keep stuff out of the diff. They fit very snug to the rings.

I finally got my car sorted out. Its weird but apparantly front blacks work best.

Qualified 3rd and finished 5th. I can't match up to both their acceleration and top speed, an issue with maybe my batts or motors or esc but definitely not the car. My car was so dialed I was running something like 1-2cm from the barriers at one of the sweepers and wow...

Thats great buddy. Let me know what you are running for brush/spring combo and i will see if we can get you some extra ponies. Gearing is critical also. What are you geared?

I was using an epic type x motor, f brush, green n red springs. My power seems to fade very badly after about 8 laps. I was geared at about 36mm rollout as the track had 8 hairpins 1 chicane 1 sweeper.
