My thoughts on the new car, check you have diff thrust washers in your kit before you leave the hobby shop, cause there was none in my kit, Jeff from Trackside reported the same with his kit as well, also disappointing was no shock oil and diff greases. The car went together very well, the new shocks are very easy to build, the piston is now held on by a screw instead of a clip, they were easy to remove any air and get the rebound right. Diffs are the same except for steel out drives, disappointing to still see that alloy nut which you have to insert into the plastic t-nut. There's a place to put your transponder in the front bumper now, so overall I can't wait to get some electrics in it and drive, o the tc5 body fits on the posts ok but haven't check with wheels on. |

I should be picking mine up from Trackside RC in Adelaide either Tuesday or Wednesday (with luck starting to test on Thursday at Littlehampton), I'll be sure to mention something to Daly. Are they the same size as the TC5 ones? I've got plenty for the TC5 as spare.
While we're talking spur it's now mounted between to alloy plates with the drive pulleys pushed onto them, no backlash like the tc5 and lighter as the shaft doesn't spin, the bearings are push into the plastic drive pulleys the shaft is screwed the 2 small bulk heads. The electrics are all in now so I'll be able to take it for a run tomorrow. |
Oh cool, cheers for that!

Hi,
Just so you guys know the Setup I used at the Timezone GrandPrix few weeks ago has been posted to associateds website (www.rc10.com) and it is very similar to the Setup I used this past week end to win the 2010 Halloween Classic. The main difference, is that I used 5 wt lighter shock oil, and a silver spring up front. Both were on solaris tires but that setup works very well on other tires too. If you guys have any question just PM me or post on here and I will try my best to answer ! Just thought I would post here so you guys have a starting setup for when the kit arrives. Kevens setup is great. I have at least 60 runs on my car in the last few weeks and have tried a ton of set up stuff. |

Just a curious question has any of the current drivers with the TC6 tried running the kit setup on low bite asphalt with rubber tyres?

yeah yeah I hope you get yours today mate... look forward to your posts.
But I will try and take some decent photos during the build I think my 11-22mm f2.8 will get some very nice shots. |
I highly recommend Kevens setup from the Halloween race. It is by far the best setup any of us have had in a long time.

I guess Horizon decided they don't want to sell the kit or parts as they have removed the TC6 and TC6 parts they had listed from their website. I'm sure a clerical error but that's funny. Hopefully they didn't loose all their dealers' pre-orders. :lol:
