I got my TCX on Friday, and built it on Saturday night. The build was really fun. I took some pics of my progress. It was really fun to build.

Has there been a build thread for the TCX?

Hiro, assuming the picture below is Hara's car, you've posted on his setup sheet that he was using hole 2 in the rear hub. But the picture shows he's using hole 1.

I'm guessing he changed it for the main or is the setup sheet incorrect?

Doesn't mean it wasn't changed... They were probably trying a variety of setup changes. I've been running the long rear link a lot, even on the cyclone. It works really well.

Thanks for the prompt reply, Korey. One other question. What do you gain from running longer links in the rear?

I noticed more details about the Hara machine not mentioned on IIC setup:

Front spindle Tamyia and (perhaps)different FR pivot block.

I try to use the +0.5 FR block but it block the direction, so I have to cut it down... Maybe he does the same but remove all the color...
