Part number 61398 is the ver.2 style requiring the ver.2 drive cups part number 61397. These drive cups are standard on the Hara and Surikarn editions. The ver.2 parts are all identified by a grove cut into them, both the "bones" and the drive cups. There is also a ver.2 black aluminum replacement "bone" available, they come 1 per package and the part number is 61396.

Why does Hara's car in the top right of the picture have a Marc Rheinard name sticker on the back window?

Answers on a post card please!

Monty had a pic of Rommel in his command center.

Just getting my Cyclone ready for the weekend and I've just been weighing it and its only 1400 gramms. To get it to legal race weight I need to add 100 gramms minimum but there isn't enough room to stick that many weights on.
Anyone got any suggestions?

there's plenty of room to add weights...look at Hara's car from Last weekend's nats... he's added weights to all 4 corners of the chassis. the lower right corner is under the diode. and also down the center line of the chassis.

forgot to ask Hara while he was here...
but anyone know which Straight Capacitor he's using the S4 or V8?
This seams to fit the chassis better.
I want to get away from using the large bulky barrel type.
