All I wanted to do was have a little fun, get pumped to come back and race. But I guess I wasnt supposed to..
Haha yeah I'm the kid with the long hair. I think we met at the SWR cup a few years ago? Your wife ran mini cooper?

Since we haven't had an on topic post in the last 50, has anyone tried the new front driveshafts yet?

I can't wait to run the car this weekend. It seems that all eyes will be on me
I'm a chick magnet and a r/c magnet. Look out world.....STLNLST is coming
Korey- I'm going to try the LTCR body until the Subara is released.

so maybe to many changes to really find out the difference just know the car was a lot quieter in the corners and had roll but that may also be the low braking power of the 10.5

Does anyone have a good Cyclone RCGT brushed/brushless set-up they'd be willing to post or PM me? I'd like to have a good starting point.
THANKS in advance!

Hello Everyone,
Hiro Kasuya from Hot Bodies USA R&D asked me to post this up for everyone to see. Hot Bodies has been working on developing improved driveshafts with greater efficiency. When installed on the front of the car, they will reduce the common "chatter" we experience when using a spool or turning at extreme angles. Testing has shown that they also provide a little more steering overall!!! Release date is to be announced, so stay tuned!

I have been running them for quite a while and they still work great. I do clean them up and add some grease once in a while but that's it. As for the durability, I would say they have pretty much the same durablity as the regular universal/cvd shafts. I didn't break any DCJ Shafts but i'm way too far from Hara's level
I think i'm good enough for durability testing for you guys.
Thanks,

When will the lipo topdeck/bulkhead be available too?

They already are dude!!! Are are aluminum steering knuckles and the really cool aluminum rear hubs I was running at reedy.

This has been designed to work with the standard motor mounts that come in the kits, and the optional "brushless" motor mount. You just add the shim under the bulkhead if you are using the optional motor mount.
