Anyone want to disclose the actual race weight of their cars?
Is there a maximum or minimum weight for the N/FC ? Want to try to level the field here. As much as possible for me anyways. lol

Thanks ninjatek and NTRA for the poster set. It's very cool, already looking for a place in the man cave to hang them.
Congrats to Eagle for best paint at the test and tune!

Thanks wood. I'm right in the ballpark now. I guess there is a reason it says in the rules you can hog out resin bodied cars lol!!! Big thanks to Cordell for the package. Especially the vintage posters. Love wall art. ;D I wasn't aware the test and tune was where the cars were going to be graded. Might have spent some more time on them before sending them in. I will get the hang of this Proxy thing sooner or later. Congrats to the Eagle Racing team for a nice job. |

Rick or Cordell, I have a question please, if I use a JL arm in my Aurora chassis, am I allowed to take out the shaft slop Cause the JL arm shaft is a little smaller than the Aurora arm shaft. Wood, did you do anything to take out the slop in your arm? Thanks fella's  |

I've tried to take the slop out of a couple plates and the result was it slowed down......... I'm thinking it's gotta be better and I just haven't executed it right. But my fast one is Sloppy. Maybe it's like oval racing "loose is fast"......................

Has any one seen the arm plate on the left with the two nubs under the arm? It seems these nubs rest on the rear magnet and will not allow the gear plate clamp to bee attached. If any one knows what the purpose is for the nubs speak out.   |

Hey nosub - 4-gears are a new thing to me. One of the first things I didn't like about them (besides being sloooow) was that the top plate and bottem of chassis are not parellel to one another. Look at the side of the chassis and you can see this. Especially where the magnet pockets are. If you measure the chassis from the side by the magnet pockets and the difference is tha same as the height of these nubs I'd say thats why their there is for support. Maybe you havn't got the rear magnet far enough down into the pocket. I've noticed I have to give them a bit of a push for them to go all the way down, and there will be a space the difference of the pocket walls on top of the rear magnet. Hope this helps, still trying to learn how to make this sloppy design work....................PC

If any one knows what the purpose is for the nubs speak out. One is for the non-magnatraction chassis and the other is for the magnatraction chassis. I think the one with the nubs is the magnatraction version. |
