im running mine tommorow.im doing touring and 1/12th.woof,this is gonna be tough
i got my fk05 set up with the multi diff set as a spool.i wanna try that and the locked oneway.i will be trying a bunch of different set ups.

i will be including alot of parts with the kit and will be testing my new shock towers tommorow also.i am working on a motor guard still but will have it finished shortly.i will also be making ackerman extensions that i would like to include in the kit.i will keep you guys posted.

all of my kits now will fit 3300's,3600's,and 3700 cells.i have figured a battery placement that fits them all really good.i have been changing over on all existing kits and all new release kits will fit them too.
LOL.... You will love it dude, I wanted to try my spool setup but ended up staying with the diff, because of the time issue. I feel that the spool with some setup changes to go along with it will be the ticket here. I let several guys here try it out and they were all very impressed. The only thing that some said they would like to see is a small hole on the front and rear to allow access to adjust your diffs with the body on. I will call you Monday...

i'm sure i saw this somewhere else but are you going to be offering a blue chassis for the tc4?

iirc the chassis+upper deck was $125 right? how much would 1 be shipped to the UK?

hey bruno,
tim has a fk05?nice to see you back buddy

the tc4 kit is 124.99 and i may do blue.im not really sure as of right now.my supplier said there may be issues with getting the colored c/f with the exception of titanium.i will keep you posted.


well,today i got my first test session done with the fk05.it ran really good but i was using a 3mm version with different roll center positioning.i wanted to try it but the 2.5 mm was much better.i had one of my guys running a 2.5 and it was much better.the new towers worked out great.i am very happy with them.i am going to be testing more this week to establish a good set up and then do some more accurate testing from there.

the 1/12th on the other hand was off the hook.i tq'ed and won the A main.the car was so dialed.it kept getting faster every time i went out.
