Parts: Me! Every time I break something I order 5 spares plus a replacement from D-Drive. Seriously.
I have c clips for the king pins, turnbuckles (upright sets), t-bars, a arms and .4 pitch gears. I've sold some to RC Performance locally, so they have some stock. I have motor pods, axles, grease and tires on order. The tires are not Tamiya though.
Saddly, no one really has spares or a good supply source.

yeah the solder tabs fouled on the body when the t-plate rolled side to side..
i've ended up cutting out the rear left side of the body (above the motor tabs) slightly higher than the right side to allow for the t-plate to roll..
i've also used 12AWG wire which might be overkill for the 13.5 thats in there, this would save room and weight if you used a smaller gauge wire like 14/16AWG..

can anyone tell me what the TRG "Superion" tyres are for? that is, what makes them different to the non-superion rubbers?
ideally i'd like to know if they are suited to different temperature range (and what that is) or surface (and what that is) etc?

Hey Madjack!
Sweet lookin cars. How's that Benetton working for you? I tried the B195 before and didn't really care for it. But I've never run the B192. The Sauber should be dialed with foam tires. I'm not sure about the new chassis, maybe if it doesn't work on the R chassis you could switch it to the older chassis next to it.
Good luck at the race in a couple of weeks. I'd love to race with you at a TCS...good times....very good times.

*Sauber is an o-ring car and works well
*Benetton is a pivot ball car... and is a work in progress
You need to make that trip to the track!
