valid question, but rather do the genx pod holes line up with IRS pod's holes regardless of if the top and rear graphite pieces are used.

Can I use the bottom plate from the 3.2R with the CRC Gen X pod top and side plates? Does that make more sense?

i think the CRC and IRS plates all have the same lower pod mounting hole positions.im the only freak who changed it. :lol: the top plates are different as im sure you can see

Jari freeking rules, and will treat you with nothing but respect. I'm saving up some money to get one of his kits :nod: .

I get what you are trying to do. I was going to check out some bottom plates at the local track this weekend. If the answer isnt here once I get it figured out i'll post it when I get it sorted.

I think that since the GenX plates fit right and left that the holes on the left side of the 3.2R bottom plate would not fit :cool:

oh ok,im not too familiar with that car.

Hey guys, ran the b/l centered rear pod today for the first time since building it. So far, so good. Saddly, I fried a diff today. The first one in over three years. I simply did not have it tight enough and I ignored the warning signs. I will clean it up in the morning when the doors open. I have a regional race this weekend where I intend to only run mod, then it's off to ND to finish out the test on the rear pod. This track that I am at now (carpet) rarely gets any use, so it's a little on the loose side and has a narrow groove. In practice, I appear to be the car to beat.... we'll see if it stays that way. It's got a few bumps that I have been target fixating on. Instead, I need to get back to the rest of the track for set up and just roll the bumps.

Results coming.....

Interested to hear if you think it makes a difference :nod:

And you know we will have to tease you about that diff! :lol: :lol:

curiosity question:
which turn novak brushless motor would one recommend in 12th scale?
I see that the GM drivers have been using a 5.5 in theres, but the two are probobly different in construction, so one may be faster in compairison. Ive seen many used the ready 4* which I believe is also a 5.5 turn and they seem plenty fast.

Any insight?

I would go as fast as you can, and turn down the speed via the transmitter.

I am the only one using a b/l in our regional race this weekend. Not very many attended, either. I am using the Neo 4 Star, which is plenty fast. Oddly, I am on a rather large track so there is a lot of "on throttle". Run time is an issue. I am thinking about going to my original Neo 1(last years motor) and putting a little more gear on it. The 4 Star is supposed to be equal to a 7 turn. I think the Neo 1 is supposed to be around a 10-11... feel free to correct me if you really know what it is supposed to be. I hear that the Novak guys use 4.5 & 5.5s.

Rear pod news: The b/l rear pod is doing well although it is difficult to A vs B it today. The track is coming up round per round quickly. I was caught with my pants down in round 2, made the necessary adjustments for R3 and luckily left the car on the pole for the evening. We have one more round in the morning to make it stick. I have looking to see if I have another Ace up the sleeve... but I will likely motor down and keep the car strong for 8 minutes instead of 7:30. I lost about 11 seconds in the end. TQ is very much up for grabs still. Oh, the pod mod seems to be very consistant... actually I do not notice anything odd at all back there. So it must be working! I have some tough guys to run with: Pete Robinson, Trav Schreven, Darren Shank and Sean Maybel. Anyone of us could steel it in R4 tomorrow.
