Perhaps I think it's time to ask those two old guys to pass the RING to you instead of hording it for themselves to try and look young.

Thank you master, I did wonder if Sow had been telling me the truth, but Onkel Sow's mind tricks were far stronger than I had prepared myself for 
He could change the tyres/engines on his car quicker than I could see 
I must prepare myself better for the next visit!

802145 and it comes with the new diff ring.
That would be the same as the 3Racing one. Use that and the front section will hold up crashes better. Of course not the ones that go straight into the wall.
In my opinion, that's pretty heavy ! If you have Associated 50 or 60 wt would be about right.
Yes, that is correct. I guess a lot of people complained about setting up the 705 that made it almost undrivable out of the box. Serpent probably included an out of the box setup which was possible to drive on most tracks which would mean an understeer type of setup.

Speaking of the new diff ring i put that on and it rubs slightly
But it is no big deal

get your hands on the new servo saver and the steering linkage needs to be at 39.5 - 40mm to give you correct throw

You're right - Sow didn't look good when he took the ring off We were attacking each other with our walking sticks/zimmer frames in the pit lane - like two old slugs fighting
