Groffball, you gonna make it out to the TCS at the RCO this year? I'll be back, but with time with my MSX. I might even race GT2 with my TA05... maybe... I wanna concentrate on GT1 though. I could always bring out my Mini..

Yeah I'll be back at RCO TCS, might make Ohio and hopefully Laurel. I might not run GT1 this year. I want to get the GT2 win soooo bad I had it in my hand last year until that wire popped off I picked up a TA04R Tuned Chassis I'm gonna run in that, and I'll either run mini or F1 depends on which I have at the time.

Actually it goes internal diameter x external diameter x thickness.

so the proper ref is 5x9x3, also referred to as 905 bearings (9 for ext diameter, 0 for standard thickness and 5 for internal diameter).

Do you mean the diff balls? No, you need to run 8 balls. Also, when you take off the diff, it's a good idea to replace the balls too.

The throttle response is faster when using direct pulley. When using a direct pulley with a front spool, it allows you to have four-wheel braking but also carries the effect of a one-way.

I agree with the braking part, but the effecs of a one-way I have to question! Please clarify. Thanks

Spool has the effects of an one-way because when you pull out of the corner, it's faster than using a diff, no power will be lost because the front wheels are locked with the spur gear.

Default STEERING THROW

Hey guys,

I just bought a 415MS but with the old suspension installed. I just set my EPA's equal, but the max I can set due to interference in the swing rack is about 5.5'. Is a 5.5' turning circle enough for rubber tires/19t/Ozite? I thought you guys usually run small-ISH circles when running rubber tires (even on ozite).

ANy help on how big a circle to have and f its smaller than 5.5'-how do I make my car have a smaller circle and still be TCS legal?

Thanks all,
Ray
