All ready for the National this weekend, then onto the Euros.

for all you racers using the 3racing 18T pulleys..

I found the perfect rear belt.. YOK BD-189L
1 tooth bigger than stock 187mm.
now I need to find a 510mm front belt.. stock is 507mm

soon as I get the new belt tension cams from 3Racing.. hoping it will work and not worry about new front belts...

Can someone give me the part #'s for putting a front diff together? Are the aftermarket diffs (3A) any good? I find the HB site pretty useless.
