Hello guys,

We have more option for the rubber tires.

Shimizu F1 rubber tires fit on FGX rims.

http://www.tqrcracing.com/shop/produ...&p_keyword=FGX



Also, you can use ride F1 wheels for FGX, but Ride wheels has more offset, it will make the car wider.

And, Ride tires will be restocked next week.

FGX Parts Store

FYI, Thanks.

TryHard, is your local track asphalt or carpet? I race on a CRC ozite carpet track, and am thinking of going with the Ride soft compound tires front and rear to hopefully limit the understeer you spoke of.

I was mistaken about the option kingpins being titanium; they are titanium coated as has been pointed out. Still waiting to hear back from 3Racing in response to my email to them about the fragile front arms and kingpins. We need someone like Exotek or some other aftermarket manufacturer to develop parts for the FGX, such as stronger suspension arms, and perhaps high grade steel kingpins. I would love to see what sort of chassis Exotek could make for the FGX; after all they did an excellent job on their F104 conversion which has recently been made even better with the F1R conversion. I wish they would do something like that for the FGX. I emailed Mike R at Exotek several days ago about that, but have yet to hear back from him.

I really like Pit-shimizu tires, they have tires for f201 and formula-ten
maybe they work?

Thanks
