I use MR additive.

will let you know how the changes go john
thanks

I will be at Bedworth for the next Clubmans round on the 8th, down on the 7th for practice. Will see how the setup goes then, may need a small tweek or two but should give you a good base to work from

I'd like to run a shorty pack in the future and this new TCXX doesn't appear to have anything which will secure a shorty pack in place very well, or allow one to be moved about (to balance the car).

Missed opportunity by Hot Bodies? or maybe they're thinking about selling
a shorty pack chassis for it, at a later date?

hi all. basicly stoped racing 3 year ago last had a TC and loved it so..

just got my hands on a new tcx and after some help.
i am looking at what set up to run on the front eg spool and driveshafts. what would people recomend been looking at the specR DCJs and the hb one which would be best? i cant stand chatter lol. and is the kit spool anygood?

then other bits to buy for it? gear diff etc am looking to make a bit of a list then order it all up.so anything of use to me would be good. i have searched on hear but therse so much info its crazy.

and finaly has anyone got a set up sheet for low/medium grip outdoor tarmac track,as i seem to have forgoton most things. will be running mainly boosted 13.5. on sorex 32s

thanks for any info

Hi bob
I run a tcx with Roche spool and tamiya 46mm drive shafts. Tamiya 3 hole shock pistons. 1.5 degree front block and pro4 front arms because there not as brittle as the tcx ones
That's all I find that's needed
