I will buy it, and I will race the hell out of it lol. You must exercise the demons! I won the last time out with my slightly modified NT1. Imagine what I could do with a limited edition ass kicking machine. It might even come with the light weight diff gears so I can spin the wheels off the slow corners even more lol.

yup, looks like arms are forward, the rear eccentric holder doesn't look changed. The rear arm has been shaved, if you look closely on http://events.redrc.net/wp-content/g...burchnt1-1.jpg you can barely make out the droop screw being forward of where it is stock.

Cheers

If i had to guess.. It looks like a 1mm shim from the T3. So we can all just about bet there will be a WC kit or something to that nature with the rear arms being more narrow. Im curious to know if that is a 2602 pipe on the maxpower motor or something else.

Serpent-Dan 08-03-2010 12:18 PM

No it's a novarossi 2652 pipe

The engine is a custom tuned one. So a different carb isn't all that exiting :-)


About the a-arms in the rear. What i also notice is the carbon plate on the top of the car, where the upper-link in the rear is mounted, also has 2mm shims...
Aka, that upper-link must be pointing forward a lot, which i can' tmake up from the pictures...


Also, do i see a red clutch shoe?
A-arms in front are also moved backwords, but the ackerman doesn't seem to be changed, that means a LOT of ackerman...

Capricorn clutch.

What I can't understand is the fact that Ralph won the "WORLD" not a lil b- championship or other minor race. You look at the site and not a word of his win???? Why?

I added a 2mm shim in the upper camber link and the rear shocks run against the camber links. So i reduced it to 1mm to avoid this.

I also narrowed the rear arms by 2mm. But if you narrow it down by the whole 2mm, the arms begin to rub with the spurs slightly.

Ultraspeed84 08-03-2010 02:01 PM

Yeah im kinda curious to Y xray hasnt posted some BIG BIG pics of the win on there page. The only thing i could come up with is there going to come out with a WC car and show the pics. but very weird to not have something up.
