Nice work! Time to persuade the F1 guys at your track to make an installation lap before the race start

Ed,
Tomorrow I'll be putting a few packs though my TRF to try and get it up to t-bar pace, take a look at mt 12deg caster setup.

can I ask what kingpins you used with the exotek front end on the trf? and did you attached e clips both top and bottom.
i'm trying to solve the balls popping out on the trf with the standard front set-up. I'm going to try mounting the kingpins upside down to what the manual states and see if that helps.

They are std f104 kingpins. Although the trf front end seems to work ok, I've been disappointed in its lack of adjustable or even workable uptravel with med or hard springs.
Ed,
I had though so but when I tried it on the asphalt it didnt loose the turn in or response I had expected and did increase corner speed and stability. If i remember correctly the stock caster was like 6 or 7 deg. and the trf was 1deg more. tomorrow will tell if that holds true on the carpet. Last year I had my v2 working well there and although I never got the gp to turn a faster peak lap it was consistently 2-3s faster over a 6min run and far better in heavy traffic.

its below the arm, the entire front end setup is exactly the same as a regular 104.

Can you tell me which paint did you use and where did the stickers come from?
Light kit is from Tamiya? Which part number?
Thanks,
