I ran the stock chassis, Andy had a 4mm chassis, with the standard upper deck. We both ran harder a-arms, cyclone rears and tamyia 415 fronts. I think Andy ran the cyclone a-arms up front because he used the wide offset PN racing steering blocks.

You can download it on the following link

Josh's prototype car looked great in both classes as well in Mod and 19T....

Sorry about the lack of HP Aaron...Your car did look good. But at least you know I wasnt keeping it for myself....You seen how slow my car was too!! LOL Going to test some stuff this week and see if I can figure out what happened.

I know EA, I don't know how these guys make rip all the time!

Even Andy said he though my car looked better than his on the track, maybe the setup was too safe.... My car certainly didn't run like Hermann's did on 3 wheel's in all the 180's!

Josh ran the same car he ran at the Novak....

Aaron,
Do you have some setup on both asphalt and carpet with rubber tires?

The 4mm chassis was something Josh got from Kyosho some time ago. With only 3 months running touring car and spending the first two with the shaft car I had to rely on Josh for set-up help. Not a bad guy to get set up help from My car was SUPER easy to drive in practice with a quick setup I put on it. It was sooo easy to drive that I just had a feeling I wasn't getting enough speed out of it. Josh helped me come up with some options to try and get more corner speed. I'm having a blast running TC and was very happy I was able to put it in the main at the NAT's. I had enough fun that I was back at CEFX last night trying a couple things with setups. I will post my NAT's setup later tonight.

Here is my set up from the NAT's. I ended up 7th overall in Stock.
Let me know how it works if you try it.

Ok, a few posts back I showed that I was having problems with my front spools. The C clip would break and the spool would be shreaded.

I found a guy that will make Stainless steel spools for me however the smallest number he can make is 10. I will plan on getting 2 of them but that would leave 8 left.

Would anyone else be willing to purchase one of them? Before I tell him to make them, just wanted to know if there would be any interests.

Thanks
