Thanks Demon, but MY car didn't NEED NOS! You did notice, there's a BLOWER on it, RIGHT?? LOL! It's that Nitromethane that did it! LOL!! ;D Guys, I will be MORE than happy to post all the secrets, but you'll need to give me about 4 or 5 days, since I am in the process of moving, and since I would like to have all the rest of my stuff moved by tomorrow, and I won't have my cable/phone/internet hooked up til Thursday, I will be 'in the dark' for a few days. Real quick tho, the main things in are, a new, 'original', Aurora chassis (new, from Jag's), NOT an Auto World chassis, an 'original' Tuff Ones arm (bought on Ebay, red tip, green wire), JL dark blue and white mags, shimmed, and Wizzard brushes. The arm is NOT balanced, altho I did 'polish' it using my drill and 2000 grit sandpaper. And, be sure you 'true' the rear rims if you use the plastic type. Alignment is a MAJOR issue with these things! ;D Hope these help some of you guys out. Looking forward to seeing YOU guys out there start working on YOUR cars to get them quicker! And, thanks for the props guys, MUCH appreciated! ;D Ron (Bondo)
