The flywheel is machined with a recess so that the shoe clears even when it mushrooms. No shims needed.

You're gonna poop yourself when you see how it runs. Neal is probably playing with videos of that silly ass SCT with the JL .21. Yes he sells the werks plugs on the website. He only gave me like 2 options for plugs and they were both#6's, the other being the ultra expensive picco. Jus t wait til you hammer your truggy for 12 min and still have fuel in the tank.

Well Neal, I think they are going to have to reinvent tire glue for the Clocked B5. During my last outing to the track, I was standing on pit-lane driving my RC8T when the guys asked my why my front tires looked so funny blasting down the straight..I was running a set of pre-mounted Proline Calibers that had about 95% tread left on them. I noticed that they were expanding quite a bit, more than normal.

I also felt like my truggy was handling abnormally ( plus, you know how I drive on practise days ), but thought that it was because our track was so blown out and dry. It turns out that I blew the beads out of the tiresand they came unglued from the channel..lol I haven't had this happen with pre-mount Calibers before..the outer bead comes unglued, but they never pull out of the channel lol. I'm glad I didn't keep driving or I would have destroyed them.

..so ya, you may want to start formulating some CRE Tire Glue that can hold up to the demand of CREngines lol.
