Guys,
I'm having problem with my spurs, Destroyed 2 tonight. When I hit, I think the lay shaft kinda bend and strip a spur. Im running PRS Gears...
I've know replace the spur with an RW and ran it a little tighter and manage to finish the night without ruining it.
Am I the only one having this type of issue?
Thanks
Jon Gagnon

wait, dogbones? what?
this car is great, until it comes to the plastic parts. ballcups are sloppy when they have only been put on once and the arms... well.. I had to buy more shims, lets just leave it at that. Don't know if it's just because I am used to 12th scale, but the amount of play in the suspension on this car is pathetic.

Hey Jon, while the PRS is nice and adds bling to the car I have never felt the need to change from the stock kevlar gears, they are very tough and lighter than the PRS adapter/spur combination. Many people saw my gear that I drilled many holes into it and it wieghed only 3 grams but I used it for many months of stock and 19 turn racing with no problems. The Kevlar spur is nice!
Your right, I ordered some of the losi spur today so Ill be running them now.

one thing you can do is dye your spur gear in black it looks pretty cool !!!
Hey Keith, get ready for some carpet action soon. Fastcats will have a Warmup race for vegas very early september and there might be something in between or at least you can come practice on practice day. I will be there lat august until the IIC !!

I actually contemplated doing practice today but to drive to Toronto, I would hope they had a bit longer of a practice day. Its only 10-4.. I also wish they ran carpet racing on Friday nights like the old RC Champs.. we will see i guess.

Really, really struggled today with the car. Was running Todd Hodge's setup for Ripon (http://team-spoon.bravehost.com/Jrx-...e_Ripon_07.pdf) at Wrexham here in the UK running 19t and the car was terrible. I just could not get the back end planted. I'd put the power down and the rear would squirm and make the car spin, yeah I tried taming it on the throttle but that made the lap time super slow (and didn't help that much tbh). I do all the usual pre race check ups etc and nothing was untoward, even with fresh tyres the car was rubbish.
Any ideas guys? What am I doing wrong? The car is dialled indoors, maybe I'm just to used to the grip of the carpet or something.
Hmm.
<-------- I think that combination is near enough my current feeling.
