So you were secretly working on axle shims and didn't say anything when I asked. You're killing me on the shipping for new stuff you come out every week. 
What new doodads are you coming out with next so I can just put them in an order now. Driving skills-in-a-box? I need some of that.

When we developed this car, We had every level of racer in mind. All of the parts are designed to self allign and take alot of the tinkering out of the picture. The car is made to be driven. I didnt want people to spend more time wrenching than driving. 1/12th has always been a class people would stay away from or if they did get into it, they got out quickly after seeing all of the hand fit and tinkering that needed to be done. We have eliminated that. I wanted people to experience how much fun this class really is.

Well here is mine! Its about 90% done... (Notice the missing shock) and needs a transponder..And carve in Parma bumper..
Hi-res pics are the thumbnail pics below the 640x480 pics. I appreciate good pics of cars as you do to, so I am returning the favor.
I did cut, shorten, and solder the ESC wire undernieth the gtb solder tabs, so there isnt any confusion, Need to shoogoo the Cap down to!
(Dont mind the old SMC.. lol new ones are on the way!)
(Ill send adrian the final pics once it is 100% done and the new body mounted on her)

The wiring looks nice on your DB12R. How does it work with the shock installed? It looks like the wires will hit the shock.

Wasnt trying to be rude. I am very knowledgable in material applications and Acetal or "Delrin" is not a material i would chose for this application. It does not draw heat from the motor,It insulates the motor creating further problems. It is also not rigid enough to do the job i am looking for it to do. It is a strong plastic but not for this application. I see no advantage to using this material for pods.
