Really? It's 1.875.

Hey Mark, does the FAQ include the 710 internal drive ratio somewhere?

No real need to post Rene's confirmation of the ratio, as D knows everything anyway :lol: but here it is:

1. Does anyone know ALL the pinion and spur gear options for the S710, and what are they?

2. The aluminium shocks, what would I need to get for the shocks that would give me full, race ready aluminium shocks?

D have answered you on the above.


3. Does anyone know where I would be able to get a relatively old second hand S705 with engine and possibly electronics (not compulsary) But the machine must be running and in full working order. Basically, I want to build the S710 to Race, and a S705 to play. I will need to have it shipped to South Africa.:sweat: :D
I do have a 705 that I am willing to part with for a fellow snake nut. :)

PM me if you are interested.

It still snows in Korea ! You should not look too east and you'll get sun (and perhaps a "little" bit of scattered showers) 24/7/365.:lol: :lol:

Actually the weather is great today - bloody cold (-5 Deg C) but very dry. If it remains so, then I could risk going to the track on Sat :D Just wish there was a webcam installed there, then I could see if the snow is still on the track :nod: :lol:

Cheers, Mark.

I braved the cold yesterday because I just couldn't wait. It was 4 DegC but it was sunny when I got to the track. Had to wear gloves in the end. I did not pull out my 710, just the 705 to see what its like on my new "home" track. :)

I really like your idea of the webcam. I found a couple of websites that had webcams pointing at tracks but have lost their links. :(

BaxterC, this is the 705 that I mentioned above. Of course, it'll be cleaned before taking its flight to Sth Africa .. :)

Oh, the glove wasn't just for show. It was windy and without the gloves, your fingers stopped working after 2 minutes!

The engine ran a cool 75 DegC throughout whereas back at TT the same tune settings it was doing 115 DegC! :lol:
