You can get Lunsford titanium axles or Parma steel axles. You should be able to get them from you local hobbyshop if not Stormer Hobbies might have them.

I have threaded axles and prefer them over the other aftermarket....and there was a prior post about the binding with the king pin and reaming.....look a little ways back.

I have gone back to the original setup for the extra tuning option. Just make sure the clips are not worn from excessive R&R and place a shim between it and the wheel.

Default AARCMCC rules

Does anyone know if the Protoform Ascari is AARCMCC legal? Looking at Rule 3.3.2 seems to suggest that the Ascari lacks enough of a driver figure to be legal. Is this correct? Thanks

Does anyone know of where I can find an online/downloadable manual for the CEFX C12 car? It is the first C12 version. Thanks!

Brian, I can leave you one at Box Kar later in the week, there is nothing online at all right now, you can do a Google seach under Cefx C12 and ther is a Europeian thread that guys talk about the car.

just to set the suspension.when you pick a car up the suspension fully decompresses.when you set it down,you push on the antenna to make sure that your suspension is at the set levels after rebound
