Hey Wyd,

Look at my sig
Can't stay away from the E4FS.
1 for indoor,1 for outdoor and a E4RS just for fun.
Love the car.
Easy to set up and no suprices in the corners due to the great balance.
I thing i don't like about the car tho,and that is have to ad weights to it to get it op to 1350grams for the lipo class

cheers Roy

Without the body its about 1210 gram
With body its 1315 gram
Need to add 40 grams of weights to get it to 1350 gram.
Used a tamiya body before but don't like the handling of it so i stick to a Mazda 6 or the Mazda 6 speed for indoor and the Dodge stratus for outdoor.
Sad thing about the Dodge is that i need to ad more weight.
Ah well as long as it handles ok and i can have some fun out there

cheers Roy

Hey guys... Can someone give me the part numbers on the fs arms and the rs arms.... I will be picking up a FS soon and will be using it only as a rubber car but carpet and asphalt....

As soneone said the rubber spec arms give more clearance?
Would the fs arms be good for carpet then still with rubber tires?
And are the fs and rs arms f/r or are they only diffrent in the rear? Thanks...

The foam FS arms do not help with the correct ride height with rubber tires. The rs arms lower the car for the correct ride with rubber tires. Doesn't matter if it's carpet or asphalt if you are running rubber tires you want the rs arms. Unless you use short springs with the foam arms. The foam arms are for the extremely low profiles of foam tires to get the correct ride height.

I used the RS arms on all my cars, rubber or foam. The foam arms not only make it hard to get ride height but they also have toe in at the hub. With the RS arms you have more than enough adjustability even on foam tires for ride height, droop, and toe in.

Well I race 17.5 and I think the options with no mods are the Novak and Orion motors. I have a Novak Ballistic as I didn't want to hack on the pretty chassis. Plus I have seen them run and they are plenty for anything else I may go up against.

I have my DUO 2 on my E4RS now (same car as yours)...but of course I dremel the side pulley mount (that plastic piece) alot to make the clearence. Just do that....it will work, and so does the mount...

I have my SP GT2 speed (yes, it is hugh compare to Tekin) mounted since day 1 and it is like 1/3 of the speedo is sticking outside the chassis....nothing wrong with that. It won't rub the ground unless you press the car on 1 side and force it to rub the ground...
