No replys from shapeways or sculpteo yet. Although I asked twice
But now I am allowed to post links here
Here is a video where you can compare the play between the original and my c-hub.
Can someone post a pic from a broken c-hub, please? That I can see where I should reinforce my version.

How are people glueing their tires or are they? Sidewalls front glued? I'm not using sweeps just yet.

Wandering steering
Ran my new M-08 for the first time tonight. Much like my M06 I can't get the steering to track straight and trim well. Any tips or suggestions on how to get the steering working as best it can on the M08?

I haven't played with droop or alignment per sey. But I plan to.
Any suggestions on the steering rack system? It seems a bit sloppy

I would say its both. The main concern is while running. Having the car have a pull down the straight isn't fun. Seems no matter how I try to adjust the steering trim. Incant get it to track perfect.

I put mine this week on a Corner weight scale after my first real race. Had a bit of Problem starting from Zero in the starting grid, pulling to the left side. But I had been lazy and didnīt have the M08 balanced yet. As we use the Carson Dragster 3 ESC thereīs quite a heavy load to be equalized. Nearly all my Friends put the ESC on the opposite side of the engine, to balance already by the location. I now put my Receiver on the right side plus 15g tire balance weight. With CVA dampers I Chose the way to put 0,5mm shims above the lower ring eye under the spring seat. By that I got now a acceptable balance with less than 10gr. difference left to right on each axle. Good enough for me.

Today i had my first run with the M08 and the car is a blast to drive. Allthough my M07 runs also great and fast but i've been 0.4s faster with the M08 over the M07 at the same strack layout. No gleuing on the front tires and with the exception of a anti-roll bar the car is as good as standard.
Grip level is medium to high.
I've also been busy with designing and 3D printing a rear spoiler for the MX-5 and it hold pretty well even though i've been hit from behind it's still in 1 piece.
The whole idea was to design a spoiler that looks as real as possible and it worked out very well (i think) :-)
