A bit pricy, but I still ordered some. At least the dollar is a little stronger compared to yen these days.

I hope this shows whatever you're looking for. Honestly, to me it just looks like another 1/12 car! I guess I don't pay much attention to how others mount their bodies. I'm still pretty new to this 1/12 game, but I'm an open book and will gladly share what I have learned-- good or bad. |

Use a tweak station. Borrow one if necessary.
I was using the coin trick until one of our local fast guys (gubbs3 on here), suggested I really should use a tweak station. I'm fortunate that my home track, MMR in Minneapolis MN, has tools such as tweak stations and a tire truer available for racers to use. After learning to use the tweak station properly, my car has been noticeably more consistent. I was just being lazy using the coins. The coin trick is fine for a super quick check, but if time allows, just get the car on a tweak board. |

I ordered as well. I hope that two rears and two fronts come in the sets. If I ordered only one of each I'm gonna be bummed because I have to order again.
I wish there were set-up wheels for my Pro 10/1:10 pan. |

Those setup wheels look awesome. Thanks for sharing the link! If I had an extra $85 I'd order a set.

Thank you Jeff, that is fine. I was really wanting to see how aggressive the "side height" (profile) of the car looked when cutting it above the normal cut lines making the top of the body closer to the track.
|
Are you all cutting above the trim line? Isn't/was't there a rule that said no cutting above the trim line?
