Just to let you know about the lube.
Brand: TRI-FLOW
Description: Superior Dry Lubricant with Teflon
It's a wax based formula, but it is very thin.
In Australia it's available from good Pushbike shops $14.95 for a 59ml container.

Has anybody compared diff oils from different teams?

I was watching the game but it got boring in the 3rd quarter so I went to bed. I guess I missed the exciting part.
Has anyone tried an RRR front sway bar on their 710? If so, what do you think?
I tried it last night and I had a lot of steering but the car was a little difficult to drive but it may have been the track.

We have the latest conrod by Picco. Now, beside having awesome performance at a very good price level, we have also reliability. We have already stock of rods as spare parts. The engines we have in stock (both engine only and Powerpack) will be supplied with the old conrod installed (we reccomend to use it only for breaking in the egine) and the new one as a spare at no extra cost. After we sell all our inventory, the new batch will come with the new one already installed.
