I will buy it, and I will race the hell out of it lol. You must exercise the demons! I won the last time out with my slightly modified NT1. Imagine what I could do with a limited edition ass kicking machine. It might even come with the light weight diff gears so I can spin the wheels off the slow corners even more lol.

If i had to guess.. It looks like a 1mm shim from the T3. So we can all just about bet there will be a WC kit or something to that nature with the rear arms being more narrow. Im curious to know if that is a 2602 pipe on the maxpower motor or something else.

The engine is a custom tuned one. So a different carb isn't all that exiting :-)


About the a-arms in the rear. What i also notice is the carbon plate on the top of the car, where the upper-link in the rear is mounted, also has 2mm shims...
Aka, that upper-link must be pointing forward a lot, which i can' tmake up from the pictures...


Also, do i see a red clutch shoe?
A-arms in front are also moved backwords, but the ackerman doesn't seem to be changed, that means a LOT of ackerman...

What I can't understand is the fact that Ralph won the "WORLD" not a lil b- championship or other minor race. You look at the site and not a word of his win???? Why?

I added a 2mm shim in the upper camber link and the rear shocks run against the camber links. So i reduced it to 1mm to avoid this.

I also narrowed the rear arms by 2mm. But if you narrow it down by the whole 2mm, the arms begin to rub with the spurs slightly.
