you know what. when the RCMART towel is free, the logo looks damn good.

the colours of the towel are excellent to work on. you can see black screws, you can see white teflon shims. you can wipe your dirty hands on it, etc.. all the things you'd wanna do with a pit towel.

besides, what's cooler than a drawing of a crazy dude eating the sun?

that is all.

Chen, not really, car can go faster if I dont roll it all the time haha.

did 15 laps.

16 laps is possible with no mistakes. the computer was saying i was looking at 16 laps at one stage, till it rolled, and rolled.. ehehehe

my secret so far is fresh/grippy radials on front, and completely bald radials on back, stock setup, haha. need ball diff.

Screw the ball diff! First corner in first qualifying, got a shunt and major diff slippage put me out for the day. Put the standard bevel gear set up back in with a bulk load of grease

nothing wrong with my ball diff. its been shunted, pranged, flipped, etc and thehe diff is still as tight as the day i built it.

I dunno I should have checked it after a couple of runs like I have done in the TA05 all I know is it needs a rebuild now, as it has a rather nasty burr in there.

Yeah similar to James' set up but with the carbon shafts and front universals w/oil shocks now. Hunting down some Tamiya 2400 Nicad batts as we speak.
