I have ALL copy rights to all names starting with STL.....LOL

KSI- the XXX-S came with two different size wheels hexs' The larger one's will allow you to run the TC3 wheels. Even if you don't have any they are real cheap should you have to buy a set.

Hi,

I purchased a bunch of xxx-s parts from another racer and i am confused about the low roll center vs high roll center blocks.

Are the taller blocks the high roll center blocks or the low roll center blocks? My first instinct wants to refer to the taller blocks as high roll center, but by raising the arms, i am lowering the chassis. Does this make them the low roll center blocks?

Can someone please point out whether the taller blocks are high or low roll center.

Thanks,

Karen

Harsh,

If you are coming to Stockton on Saturday, I can show you two of Br00d's Monster-based stocker motors. Had em since December.
