Yeah, Have you? What is she like?

I bought an MG body, has anyone tried it?

Do not care much about the bathces, everything has its trade off. Think of it this way, the later the production is, sure there will be improvement here and there but also there will be another problems as the tooling becoming older. Just like on 705 that share many parts from its predecessor. Flashing here and there.

Thanks D.
I guess I'll stick with the one way for now.
The tracks I go to are fast, high traction tracks.
I was thinking of getting the front ball diff in case I go to a different track.

What do you think? It's too nice to put it on !

kreidel wanted to know if there was any way of knowing what kit had the new parts in it.
The batch number was the only thing we could think of.

I think the Serpent front ball diff goes relatively cheap and priced very reasonable.

Anyway like Julius say, you can tune the balance of the car by playing with the front ball diff. Useful if you race on tighter tracks.

For this weekend, I intend to se tthe car back for oneway front. It's been "some time" since I ran the car with a oneway front. Mid way, I'll change to front ball diff. It's a very huge track where most cars run out of breath and only cars like NTC3 and Serpent are ably geared.

I know the feeling - I only put my 6 on my EVO III for a couple of laps, then took it off because I didn't want to damage it

Perhaps I'll get another one and put on a simple paint scheme and when I bash it up, at least I won't feel guilty or hurt crashed_1's feelings !

That wouldn't be a bad idea!

Yes, I know that one.. I`m actually reffering to general buy by batch prefferences in the long run..

Ok had just a little run of the car (running back in the engine care of baxter c) and i find that the droop setting screws work there way out of the alu holding the top on! if i use thread lock is there any that i can use that wont so much lock it in just keep it there as i am worried that if i lock them in i will never get them out!

I use the Tamiya thread lock and it is a kind of rubbery type glue which won't prevent you from removing the screws. Don't put too much on, though - a dab is enough.

Cheers, Mark.

Thanks mark i will try that

I forgot to mention that I used a little thread lock on those droop screws on mine ! Don't worry about not being able to take out the droop screws. Use a blue thread lock. Not the red one.

The droop screws tend to be a little loose on the aluminum piece where the front droop screws are at.

Thanks D i will try that.

Oh yea just read your posts in the G4 thread GREAT POSTS!
