Hi Andy, I fixed your post hehe. I know your around in the Tamiya pits but I don't recall ever introducing our selves. Please say hi next time. I don't plan on running much the next couple of weeks, but I will be hanging out helping my brother out with his TA05R and watch Corey run mod (which is dialed btw) so if you need any help with any of your cars, come swing by and introduce yourself. Or let me know what you look like and I'll say hi.

Will do! If Corey's car is anything like Reedy there is no doubt it is fast! And if you are working on your brother's TA05R I will be over to take a peak. I am trying to get mine working for GT2 this year. I am getting another set of shocks to try out some different things.

BTW, mine was the blue Nissan on Saturday, but I think it will be yellow come this weekend.

And even if it was the "dirtiest-hack-filled-I'm gonna T-bone you" race, it was awesome from the pits to watch. I think someone needs to organize an all mabuchi track day after regionals.

Hi,

does anybody know the part number of the original TRF415 top deck? It's hard looking for the partnumber at the tamiyausa site.

Thanks

How'd you find that part number? I was trying to use the search function all day and I can't find it.

Thanks mrjames.

Hi Corey. The file won't open - whether I try to open it or download it. It might be something to do with being hosted on the Tamiya site but not sure... Thx for posting all the same!

looks like you need to go to the setup area of the TRF Race center... it has a link there which works.

Oliver,

I used the standard arms. I have never tried the short arms. I am sure I will try it at the Nats though.

Thanks, Corey. Coincidentally, I tried a setup at BCR that looks a lot like the one you posted. The only real diff was 400 wt oil, short arms on the front and no sways. The car was pretty good and had good steering.
