you can chop down the nut and the screw and the tbar. should be ab le to squeeze a 35 into the car.
the fdr of a 1/12 is 1:1 it is direct drive. so we use roll out. tire size is how we control speed.
this weekend J and I ran 31 with 46mm tire and tim ran 34 with 44mm I think
to set toe, Tim tells me to put pressure on the back of the wheel before we check it. just use one of those hudy sheet that most have on the pit board. and set about .5 to 1 degree toe in.
on Mike's track we do not change the battery location much in an L4, just shoe goo the things pointing toward the rear. you can always pull them off if you need to move them up for mod.
you may want to run a 100 spur if you want more top end, but then we usually run 2 screws to get the motor far enough forward.

Just to make sure . . . you are saying to mount the battery trays so that the batteries are shifted back, correct? And when you said you usually run two screws you are referring to the t-bar mounting screws, correct? Thanks for the help yang.

yes batteries back.

I don't run 2 screw, but this past weekend, tim J and I all ran a 2 screw setup in 19turn. But Tim was the only one that was running a 34-35 which require more room. I had a 31 and that was ok even with the third screw in there.

I ran the 3 screw set up as well this last weekend.

I believe that Aero1 produces a Dodge Charger and McAllister does a Monte Carlo.

Can anybody help me, I have a Trinity Reflex12 oval and it needs to be stiffer, the chassis flexes to much. any one have any ideas.

Where can I get 2-56 ball studs in "bulk" .. ie not 2 to a pkg.

I'll take a shot at this, but you wont like it. To stiffen the front wont be bad. Make a brace that connects both front a-arms together. Nothing more daunting then some threaded tubing (4-40 most likely) cut to length.

In the back your going to have to get really creative and rig up a dbl deck chassis with standoffs. Usually boxed will lead to the most strength. Good luck with that.

Last but not least-find a guy with a bridgeport or a CAD milling machine and make a thicker or stiffer material replica of your chassis.

Have fun!!

you can also get some CF rod and glue it in. keeps the cg low.

Trillion thx for the advice .. may i know whether it fit for a L4 or required a conversion or even L3 chassis instead ..

I just got my DPM Rug Burn kit in the mail. Its a really clever design and the graphite material looks good.

Here are some pics so you can get a better idea how the flex plate works.
