Is there a website or someplace I can check these out or see them?

Did anyone else not go with the adjustable dampers and install the "fixed" dampers? I installed the adjustables, but didnt like them (couldnt get them to constantly change). Its like they would hop or miss a click. Without the oil, it was alittle easier to tell, but once I oiled up the shocks, couldnt work it out.
....
On another note, earlier we were going off on the car tweaking. After having ran the car for 12 heats I am too finding it to be kind of tweak prone, and not just from collision but from stuff I would consider minor pipe taps. I still think it is a non-issue, and I love the car, but I would still consider it a bit more tweak prone then most of the cars I've ran. I'll be getting a adding a solid topdeck to the car soon.

You dont need to go with a solid top deck. Just counter sink the stock one and never worry about it again.

Now, do I use the same screws (not sure what the sizes are) or do I now have to install a longer set?

i used slightly longer screws than standard. more thread to grab, and less chance of tweak

I didnt mean to use washers although it might work. I meant for you to actually counter sink into the carbon fiber.

The only thing I found with using washers is that they worked to good
I got hit real hard in one of my qualifiers and the washers held the tweak. It's a good temporary solution, but like mentioned above just properly countersink your deck or go all out and get a BMI chasis.
I also use longer screws where it won't interfere with either the bellcrank or installing the battery,this to will help.

What base gearing would people run on a T2 indoor on carpet with a 27T? Fairly tight track. Really struggled last night to get the gearing low enough and the motor was cooking at the end of the run.

84spur / 19t pinion for 7.5 overall.
very tight indoor carpet track, with mainly hairpins on rubber tyres.
