Arrowmax is better.

rtypec,

How did you like running the R8 LMS? Just wondering how it compares to the NSXs that so many people run in GT1.

Questions?? Roll Center Shims for Tamiya Separated Sus Mounts?
I'm looking for Rollcenter Shims for Seperated Sus Mounts. I found these at a german website but I don't know if they will ship to the US. Are there any others out there? Are people just making their own?

I am using 3racing shims 10pcs. 2,90$

Name: 3rac_wf310(lb)_001_ss.jpg Views: 1064 Size: 8.2 KB

Rcmart have them in stock for example

http://www.rcmart.com/rc-washer-3rac...s-p-22070.html

They work fine, and the blue matches the original tamiya blue perfect.

I also use them to shim the rear uprights.

Greetings Rainer

We're both doing the same things right now. I'm hoping for a faster / eaiser way to do this.
