4. Wheel spacers

Also, I cut a tiny hole in the top of the chassis to run the servo wire through, hope that didn't screw me?

Lastly a question: Does Tamiya make a cross-over part that could be used in place of the kit rear axles to allow a 6mm+ spacer? I was thinking maybe a a different axle might work as I think there is room behind for a regular axle??

Thanks Much!

as Tamiya racer said U want to keep the car as light as u can motor heat has never been an issue, bump steer if u shim your shocks right u will have very little ,wheel hex I found with my touring car with the rear wide it has less bite than narrow so, I plan to try 4mm wheel hex on the rear and 6mm frt just to see how the car rotates in and out of turns..I will post what I find 2mar
