TOPIC:

the metal shock mounts will arrive tomorrow (most probably) or on Monday.
So in the meantime Ive sent the meaurements for the carbon chassis mounts to my friend to create them. they will be made by aluminium and I'm thinking to make the saddle pack mounts by Teflon. Actually I was thinking to make the whole bunch by teflon. it's easier to work with and lighter.
I've ordered the black front gearbox from tamico.de. will cost 24euros but I also ordered another set from banzai that will cost only 5. it will take a month to arrive but what the heck. the tamico order is already on it's way with DHL shipping.
Meanwhile my turbine arrived from service so I will have to take some time in th workshop with my planes. temps outside are above 40degrees celcius so you can't fly or run. even now that it's 10.30pm it's around 34degrees.
I think I should have the car ready for the track by tuesday if the DHL order arrives. hope the temps drop a bit to allow some track run.
I would also like to thank you guys taking part in this thread and helping with opinions and not only. (body of manta-Stingray)(waterbok for designs and measurements)

In aloy take 1mm of zycral or dural. And make some holes for the weight;)

Thanks. I don't think I will find those in the hardware store. But holes will be there anyway for the screw threads

Replacement arrived

nice!

Also.. I just closed a deal on a top force frp chassis top and bottom deck with all the aluminium mounts
used but it should work for me

That's a good deal. All FRP tamiya parts are good deals

100usd+shipping total 124 for the original ones/ I know lyt
now I will just have to let it work with the aluminium towers that just arrived and I will try to find the frp/carbon
the trf rubber seals arrived inland yesterday. should have them in about a day or two. hope they fit my hi caps because 1 was cracked. this should change the looks of the car completely

GOT ITTTT.. waiting for iiiiit !!

OHHHH YESSSS!!!!!!!!!
