[QUOTE=Sydewynder;7961760]Look in the manual at page 20 at the pics in the middle of the page. See if part 85281 is installed and that the spur gear is installed properly on it (two of the holes in the gear needs to fit onto the two nibs on part 85281). Make sure part 86219 is tight on the spur gear.

THANKS FOR THE HELP GUYS, IT WAS THE COLLAR THAT THREADS ONTO THE DRIVE SHAFT CUP THAT HOLDS THE SPUR GEAR ON....ONCE THAT WAS TIGHTEND IT WORKED GREAT.

NEXT QUESTION....ANY RECOMMENDATIONS FOR FOAM TIRES AND WHEELS THAT WILL WORK. LOOKING TO RACE ON CARPET.

I haven't seen setup sheets anywhere for this car. Anyone know where I can find some, or have a good base setup for concrete?


Thanks

Hello guys. This is my first post, i´m new to the CR and i´m having trouble on deciding wich combo to use on it. The thing is that i´ve got a novavk havok 8.5, a velineon, and a CC sidewinder 5700. My idea was to use the sidewinder, but when i removed it from my sc truck I realized it says it is a 3.5T motor. Is it too much engine for the CR? I´m quite experienced on rc, but i wouldn´t like to wreck the differentials. Thank you very much

All of those are going to be more than the CR was intended to use to be honest. You could use one of those speed controllers with a different motor - I'd say at most a 17.5 brushless.

I've read about people using more in this car, so it can be done, but I don't know how well the internals will stand up to that power over long term.

Exotech, Hot Racing and Tsais make/made very nice hop-up for the Cup Racer

Hi,

thank you. i will have a look for these parts.

For i am not from america it would be nice, if you guys could give me some advice where to order hpi etc. parts. the prices in us are much better than here in europe! i know tower (quite expensive), rc-planet (better) and go hobbies (i think good prices, but no paypal)

so thank you very much for you help!!!

MikeR has a good setup for asphalt here. I think he used this setup in his youtube video of a race:

Stormer Hobbies sells Exotek but I don't know if they send to Europe.
