Nothing about this hobby is cheap... If someone
wants to save money... You just quit and stand
on the other side of the fence... I think we
persuade Cring to take the Edam parts
and build a belt car... From the 4wd kit you
can use all the axles/ driveshaft/ tank/ clutch/ rear bulkhead
/ brake setup/ knuckles / bumper etc... The only parts needed
to be made are the chassis/ radio plate and
blocks to mount hubs...
I'm not even totally convinced these cars need a diff.
when my car was running briefly this Sunday it
exhibited none of traction/ no traction hop
stuff you sometimes get with a solid axle...maybe
chassis is correct stiffness to let inside tire float
like a go kart???
Arguing about cars is getting us to a dead end fast
