Starting my build on the TA07. I'm just getting to the diffs and so far it has gone together flawlessly. Zero play on the arms and they still swing silky smooth. I went with the 419x front 05e blocks to give the car a wider more normal stance. I also noticed the molds where the bulkheads mount in are square... hmmm plans for future upgrades? Wonder if the 419x bulkheads would drop in as is? Looking forward to getting this thing finished up over the next couple of days. Should be fun as I have all these goodies to drop in it.

Man, that looks like a "hammer dropped" on the toe nail; blackened I must say. Sweet upgrades, was wandering if the Exotek hinge blocks would work for the TA07? Both split and straight blocks.

I would agree with you, but I wonder if it was done to help eliminate interference with the motor shaft. As it is now, many motors come in come very close to interfering with the belt. I know the last thing I want to do is trim some off to get it away from the belt.

Today i had my second race with the TA07 and the car was once again very stable and wel balanced om a high grip carpet track.
I only changed the droop from the last race and it improved my laptimes inmediately by 0.3 seconds.
I finished second but i drove the fastest laptime of today and i was the only one with a plastic chassis in the A-finales.
Very very pleased with this setup and the car :-)
This setup works great for me and it's a good starting point to go even faster,... hopefully

The Top saber single belt conversion motor is moved further to the center line. I had to shim the motor out for balance. So unless the motor is perfectly centered, it may be better not to close to the center line
