Hehehe......

I think that John's question may have been a little sly.....

Wasn't asking for the setup...as much as asking if it was the final prototype (ready for production )

Wayne - cool cool. I gotta give Jason a call today to chat about the 1/12th scale along with some other items.

Again, glad you had fun. Wish I could have been there! Stephen and Fukuyama won the Stock Championship! I'm still excited over that news!

I get that a lot also. They think it's just the old G-10 and don't relize what's inside the new one!!!! They rock!!! I'm really shock at it with Mod. You can get it soooo smooth.

I'd like to see your settings for stock. If you get a chance post them on the settings thread on the Tekin site. Don't want to take away from the car on this thread.

take care
john

Wayne - I'm interested in the setup. Also can you email me the final pricing and your details when you get a chance over the next few days. Well done at the champs.

Hi,

Did the missing object ever show up??????????? and thanks for letting me invade your room with all kinds of people wanting to look at the B.M.I. 1/12th scale car.

Tim...
I just talked to Jason and he's gonna try to run off the graphite stuff and make a small modification to the pod plates and we should be all set!!
I don't mind showing people the conversion or all of the new goodies were gonna have out

Fatdoggy...
I would guess about 2 7/8 to 3 inches.... I have it go over the shock so I don't have to take the shock off.
