Special announcement...Because of Mother's Day next Sunday. Ripon will be racing on Saturday night for the next two weeks.
I am expecting an absolute 1/12th scale shootout by those that don't have to be at mom's house on Saturday too...

Dynamic caster is adjusted by changing out the caster blocks. (ie. 0,5,10 degree blocks)
i know how to adjust caster, I was wondering how to actually adjust it becasue the location of the screws is hard to get a regular hex wrench to work. Someone recomended a ball hex wrench, so maybe ill try that, or just use the L wrench supplied with the kit
if you dont know what im talking about, i am running the 10 degree mounts, and want to move the caster shims where both are at the top, which i think is 6-4 degrees of caster, but like I said, the location of the screws is difficult to remove and was just wondering how to properly remove them

Charlie,
If it allows you to sleep at night then you can think that
and yes I know you can have a good 14.88 seconds worth of driving, unfortunately the race is 8 minutes long. I am interested to see the results to see what my time was for the final, I don't know if I broke my TQ or not.
On a more serious note, next week is going to be great as Jrrc and Ashby are going very well. OD may of knocked some more of his rust off too. If we can get two finals going then a little of the chance element will be reduced.

Setups...... reports..... tips and tricks...... racers rides.... everything. All just 12th scale. Thanks.

yeah, i used to maintain "12th scale journal". I still have all the info and files. I just need to update some things. I will check into it. Friend that used to help me with it suggested throwing it back up.
I used to get setups from Cyrul, Spashett, Blackstock, Orr, etc etc. Shared a lot of my racing secrets or some from other diehard 12th fans.
