Here's the link to Kevin's website. He makes nice stuff, and at a reasonable price as well. Sounds like there is more and more interest in a Cyclone TC specific plate, so maybe he'll make one. You guys just need to tell him you want one, and actually buy it!!!
If you do some searching around on his website, he also produces a tweak plate that I use regularly. It's great for making sure your car is completely flat and tweak free.
For camber links, it's position 2 on the cyclone TC upper bulkheads. I used the "inner" hole on the rear hub. Basically box stock camber link setup, except the shims under the pivots. I tried position 1 (short) but it wasn't that great. The car would turn in super hard, then get a really bad push through the longer corners. The longer link setup we typically use was much better overall because it was more stable, and produced more mid-exit steering.

Any one know of a diff that fits the cyclone?Will an xray fit?I shattered one of my outdrives and no parts--are avail--I know the pulley count is different,but will the outdrives/diff halves work? I have a big race coming up and no one seems to have parts--

Not sure what setup to use anymore I have been trying to get my car to rotate in the 180 deg corners and it just push coming out with every setup I can find on the TC online and more, I tried my buddy car the 416 and I could not get my car the rotate or steer has his, any one with a setup for a med traction track with a lot of 180 deg corner please.

The Pro-spec ball diff (#67720) for Cyclone is a good one besides if you want to try other manufacturer's. It's hold up pretty good even on Mod motor with the POM outdrives. The old one is using 2mm diff screw but the Pro-spec's is 2.6mm which is a lot stronger and it comes with ceramic ball which gives a silk smooth feel.

Does anyone know when the next generation Cyclone will be released? I saw Andy Moore running a really cool looking prototype at ETS. There seems to be a lot of changes, probably more than 50% of the parts are new.

new car perhaps
There was(quick) an interview with Hara from the worlds that ive only just seen where he eludes to a new car being available late 09 early 10,
does anyone know if the lack of available cars/parts atm has anything to do with this fact?
and how different?
Cheers
