Ahh we fell back to the second page.
Ayways I just wanted to say that I finish 1st last night in the A-main and in one of the heats. I even beat my motor builder. It was some good racing. I was only off TQ by about a half lap. Not too bad for the 3rd time out with the car. All I can say is that I love this car.
However I need some inut on getting rid of some push on power. I closed up 3 holes on the pistons and stood the shocks up and put them in the outside hole on the tower. I also tighted the front diff up. I'm running the white springs that came with the kit, because I sold my TC3 and all of my springs for that car.
Would putting the oneway layshaft on help. I know I could put my spool in and get some steering, but I would like to try something different. Keep in mind I don't have any extra springs yet. I need to get paid. Please give me some ideas. Thanks...

Hello Xray owners ,
I run a C4 right now but am finding that the corally rear hinge pins bend with the slightest tap of the boards. I know that the Xray diff's fit the C4 (will be getting them soon) and am hoping that the Xray pins will fit too. Could one of you guys please do a quick measurement (length and width) of the rear hinge pins for me?
Thanks.

Fatdoggy,
The rear hinge pin is 64x3mm. There is also a flat spot for a set screw.

warlord385,
I'm guessing it could be your diff. Try propping the car up on a stand and pull the throttle a little and then grab one of the rear wheels and listen to exactly where the noise is coming from.
Also make sure you don't have any debris in your drivetrain.

Well the thing is that it was making that noise before i replace all the bearings with acer polyamide bearings, new front universas with hudy spring steel axles and i rebuilt the diff using carbide nitride balls so everything you mentioned i have changed completely and it still makes that noise. Help please?????????

Did you try putting the car on a stand and listening where the noise is coming from?
Are your belts and pulleys clean?
Adjust your diffs correctly?
Look at your diff's thrust balls?

Hi guys, can someone recommend a gearing setup for my t1 (original t1 with alu c-hub conversion), i'm running a monster stock.
so far i've been using the stock gearing that came with my t1 99spur, 24pinion wich gives me a final 7.70 ratio
i'm pretty happy with this but if i can improve i'd be even happier
thanks for feedbacks

i have tried a combo of 87/28 and i didn't really like it, the car seemed to not have the power of the previous setup i had so i switched back to 99/24

BTW, you guys have any secrets on building shocks or go right from the instruction manual? I did what it says and I always get some push back on the shock shaft. They never have air in them so tell me if I have to rebuild and another procedure so they do not push back.

I built my shocks with the GS silicone bladders instead of the stock blacks one...for the stock bladders tend to leak. the GS bladders..it's virtually leak free and has lots of rebound to it.

No racing
Unfortunately I cannot give any feed back on the T1R. I was not able to race this past weekend. I did get the car finished up last night and it seems very nice.
A friend quit running his EVO2 (c-hub car) and is only running his new T1R. Says the car is faster????
