I like that body just fine! . -Jeff

The track doesn't know what kind of chassis you are using...

I believe the original kick up angle on the ultima is 20 degrees. I remember shimming the front bulkhead to get it to 25 degrees for a better castor angle. -Jeff

Most of the time, acetone will change the tires. I tried to remove some losi siver tires once this way. The tires shrunk to the size of 1/12th scale tires after drying out. Never could get them to hook up after that :lol: . I have had many other tires shrink this way as well. If you are looking to r...

Ditto...

I am pretty sure there is no "ban" on independent front suspensions. Only the REAR has to be a straight axle. I just looked in my ROAR rule book just to make sure, and could only find the front suspension mentioned. Looks like a legal car to me. -Jeff

I will propably stick with the B3 bodies, as they are cheap, and have a moulded back end on them (which I prefer ). If I ever built a shelfer though, I would pick one up though. -Jeff

Don't know, but easy enough to find on e-bay . -Jeff

Heres a few more pics. The bearing pic is of a std. 3/16 x 3/8 bearing as the spur adaptor. Lightly presses on hex shaft, no more brass or plastic bushing :D . The chassis pic is where the chassis got cut to accomodate the B3 body. The rear shaft pic is of the optional Kyosho "proline wheel axl...

Yes, they are TRX1 front axles, trimmed an anodised. I will post more pics soon. Finished off the tranny tonight, trimmed the chassis. Just waiting on CVD's and a few other odds and ends. -Jeff

Well, the steering are stock parts, just without the rack. Rack steering systems work well on loose or loamy conditions. A bell crank steering system works better on high bite or blue groove tracks. My current track is a large outdoor high bite clay/blue-groove track, so I thought I would start with...

Sorry to hear that, but thanks for posting the info so others can steer clear.
