Do you have a setup for a front spool? I might have to use mine at the LRP Masters in two weeks.

Thanks,

Stefan
I solved my problem fitting some JBweld inside an old diff... Works perfectly.... Kinda heavy but solves the problem...

Hey Peter,

who knows, maybe I'll make the trip to the Fort sometimes, but there's also a lot of racing going on here.
In two weeks I'll be going to the LRP Nitro TC Masters.

I had a few people already asking me what s.o.b. engines I'm running

Now I just need to find a way to get them in touch with Palmaris so they can start using BRB.
Or maybe I'll keep that advantage all to myself

When you go to Cali, you should have a much easier time finding it over there.
Have you been to Ultimate Hobbies in Orange?

If they don't have it, they don't make it

Or maybe Eddie the Fish can hook you up.

Have fun over there and say hi to Edward and Leo from me.

Later,

Stefan

Are yo using standard gear pitch or .8 modular?
Also how long is the straightaway?
Is the infield tight or open?

I'll bite on this one.
Top speed depends on your gearing, tire size and engine RPM. You need the largest pinion and the smallest spur with the largest tire size and the highest engine RPM. You'll get a higher top speed with the .8 module gearing. There's a calculator floating around online that can help you calculate your theoretical top speed according to all those factors I mentioned above. Now all that being said, if you're racing on a track, a setup like that is completely useless because the car will have zero acceleration. You will lose more ground to other drivers in the infield than you will gain on the straight.
