Looking forward to it. The turnout has been great so far since the track has been done, probably the best iv ever seen since i got stationed here and found Debbies. I pit outside near the corner of the building, fell free to stop by and say hey. I will be there the 25th and 26th but i wont be racing on the 26th. Ill just be turn marshaling and working on my mod setup for the big race in a few weeks getting some practice laps between heats.

Is there a certain gear diff to put in the front to replace the spool? I bought a Spec-R diff and put it in the rear and put the original rear gear diff in the front and now the entire casing wont move. Do i need to do anything different?

Are you sure you have it oriented correctly? It should just drop straight in. You may also want to go to a much stiffer gear oil for the front. 2.5M works for me.

Im running 100k in the front diff. The outputs and gears inside move normally. I dropped the diff in the bluk head with the same settings as the spool (low cam, 8 tension) and it does not spin in the bulk head. Its frozen so much that my 6.5t motor cant even spin it. But as soon as i put the spool back in, it moves just fine.


So again, is there a different diff housing that needs to be used for the front? Or can i just use the rear one since i have the Spec-R in the rear?

Mine rubbed on the rear shock tower, check to make sure its clearing. Also make sure that your belt tension isnt crazy tight. It might change from spool/gear diff. Also make sure it spins freely before you put the upper bulkheads on. Also make sure that you dont have a bent bulk head upper/lower or a broken/twisted shock tower. Maybe you have a major tweek in the front bulkheads?

When is the next version upgrade expected from TC6.2?

I have a TC 6.1 NIB, that I've been contemplating building up for VTA, and getting a new chassis for TC stock class racing. I have been considering a 6.2, but could wait for the next version.

AE wasn't in a hurry with new versions in the past. The 6.3 or 7 will be released by the end of 2015, if they continue their rhythm. What I can imagine is an upgrade kit with optimized parts after the world championship. Maybe an aluminium chassis...

Not sure about it... At first I thought it should bring the weight lower to the ground, but then the manufacturers make them as light as the standard cf chassis. Then I thought it brings flex characteristics for highgrip conditions and therefore has an advantage, but commercial says it is good for low grip also So I don't know.
What I know is that it changes the car and that some drivers like it or it suits their cars setup... Until now I haven't seen someone in my region becoming faster with one. Lets wait for Christians (RSD) explanation
