Thx for the info ill try it out with 100k oil in front they just put down a replica to the reedy 1/12 race layout so it might actually be good to have the extra turn in with that tyle of a tight track

YES, I will be back at the track once I get the last tc4 lightweight parts from Dynotech Racing... It should be fun to race against all you guys with your new cars: Tc7, 7.1, etc...
All I've been doing is light upgrades to get my car down to 1310grams(from1448grams), in time for the new roar tc minimum weight limit...
See you at the track soon....

Your car will steer crazy style with 100K. I usually use 2.5 million or silicon earplugs

make sure your arms fall under their own weight no bind. depending on the spur you use the screws do not tighten enough to keep the spur from wobbling unless you install some very thin washers under the aluminum plate they the spur bolts to. Make sure you double check the belt tightness by adjusting the cam correctly. I got mine wrong. think about some very thin washers under the servo mount plate to ensure the servo is not touching the chassis and letting it flex freely.

What do you mean by very thin? Can you give me exact size? I will check they should arrive in two days. Also depends which brand servo u use? I will use original 87T 48DP spur for modified.

Depends on the servo. For Sanwa BLS / 801 I use 0.5mm between the alloy and the top carbon servo plate. If you're going to mount it all to the servo posts (as per kit) then you'll need 0.5mm on top of the steering posts as well.

Thank you for the quick reply, now I understand what I have to do. Keep the gap between the servo and chassis as small as possible but make sure it is floating. All depends on the brand because of different sizes.
