Thanks again

I'll order those next week then.
Thanks again

A + B = 0.5
A + C = 1.0
the narrowest block is XD and the widest is D. for the 415/TA05 blocks. they have a "1" since they are 1mm lower than the ones without it (someone correct me on that).
the blocks you can get for the 415/TA05 are (narrowest to widest)
1XD (narrowest)
1XC
1XB
1XA
1X
1A
1B
1C
1D
when comparing, visually it'll look like this:
(0__1XD__0)
(0___1XC___0)
(0____1XB____0)
(0_____1XA_____0)
(0_______1X______0)
(0________1A_______0)
and so on and so forth sorry for my primative graphics.

A + B = 0.5
A + C = 1.0
A + B = 0.5
A + C = 1.0

I had a chance to run the Tech upper deck last night for the first time. I have been running 19t on carpet with foams...All I can say is if you run on carpet with foams...get this upper deck. I ran the exact same set-up to the "T" as the last time I ran on the same layout. My car was noticebly faster through the slower sections of the track. It transitioned much better. I went from running average laps of 12.1-11.9 seconds to 11.4-11.7 . My best run last time out was 25 laps 5:05. This time out it was 26 5:10. I did nothing else to the car. I even had much less time to practice this time out. So if anyone was wondering, now you know

raced my TA05 against some FK05, I must admit it's slow because I'm still using the plastic chassis but I'm just 5-7 seconds slower than the fastest guy, BTW its carpet and I'm using the 2 stage JACO, can't tell the diff. too with the JACO prolly because car is too heavy, will be getting the CF chassis from XENON next week and will be racing it this coming Saturday, one thing I know for sure, car is very promising and I just can't wait for my CF chassis.

27turn motor, maybe I'm just a better driver or just consistent. Also fastest guy on the heat and we were in the B not A. Hope that satisfy your curiosity.
