Good to hear your car is working for you.
Yep! This car is amazing!! :nod:


I had a close look at the pictures and it seems to me the cooling head is 90 degrees off. The cooling slots in the head meant for airflow over the plug are not aligned front to rear....
:eek: WOW! I hadn't realised that it was aligned for a certain direction :eek: Thanks for point this out :nod: I did take the head off to see if the liner was nicely run in.

BTW: Are you going to the 200mm International @ MACH. I plan to make the trip - you'd better get some practice in :lol: :weird: :rolleyes: Oh man, I'm doomed! :cry:

:sneaky: :lol: It's the 3 racing part:

The bottom part is original - I just liked the look of the carbon for the upper plate :nod: plus those Titanium screws :sneaky: :D (they are from Tamiya)

Zac tires wont fit onto 710. Gotta put some .5mm shim on the axle. That's what I don't like about it.

Well I will be adding that to the shopping list :sneaky:

Thanks for the link, is the bottom plate available as well? :sneaky:

As far as I know, there isn't one available :( Here's The Border's full list of 710 hop-ups:

Becareful with the 3-Racing parts - the aluminum is very soft! :nod: I half stripped a screw in the aluminium supports for the carbon upper plate and I wasn't using so much force :nod:


Cheers, Mark.

It does actually. But they also take care of the HPI races, and they are running efra-open and invitational calsses at the same weekend.

Have fun at Heemstede. Rene improved the fastest ever lap with 200mm to 16.117 :eek: So you know what the target is :D
