Hey Aluma, our track is also 100' x 60' - it's a permanent track but we intend to change the layout from time to time. I think we have the same ideas on track design - I hope you don't mide if I keep a copy of your designs for future reference?
Here's a pic or our track, it's tarmac and undercover so no worries if it rains:
Picture of track at Blackpool, Lancashire, UK
(OK you guys can get back on topic now...)

like a 72/21 or 72/25. (which is what i had before on my evo2 I used to have) But i was getting beat on both straightaway and infield....haven't tried it on the evo3 yet.

Two diffs is the way to go for reliability.

i havn't had any oneway stripping problems like everyone else...and i've done some serious crashing...well i lost a few gears but that was due to the gear box cover coming loose

You mean this...(check attachment)?
Since i didnt have the Surikan Edition, I bought a Blue one from R/C Model. I DO think it helps via corner speed and on-power steering.

Yes, i love the Square Motor mount. It is noticably lighter than the stock silver one, and prettier too!

Hey guys,
I just recently sold my Evo 3's
But, before I did, I ordered a few more Hop-ups. Now I have the hop-ups, but no car for them. Would any of you be interested in purchasing them?
Here are the Items I have...
Square - Centre Shaft Holder for TB Evo 3 (Blue)
Tamiya - TB Evo III One Way Ring Carbon Plate
Tamiya - TB Evo III Surikan Ltd. Front Damper Stay
Let me know if any of you are interested. All Items are still in original packaging.
Thanks,
Alex
