511 gearing for Oswestry on a SP 5.5 V3.0 and a GT2.0 speedo would be handy !

Hi Lee,
First off I want to express my thanks for your willingness to share your setups and tips with all your Tamiya buggies - must say that I've enjoyed my TRFs with your tips to experiment with. I'm trying to get my TRF201 to work on the outdoor clay track that we run locally and I was wondering if you could share a little bit more about how you go about using weights to tune your car - e.g. when to put weight where and why... Would go a long way in helping me get some better laptimes. Thanks. |

Are there any plans to release updated versions of the 801X and XT?
It seems you have done a fair bit of modifying these to help you in America. I have tried the +4mm wheelbase and I found it to make the car completely different, so looking forward to see what else you do. Cheers Scott

Hi Lee,
this is very kind of you. I have 2 qeuestions for you: 1) Some set up guide line for TRF201 on dirt hard packed low traction tracks. 2) Next year i'd like to go nitro and since i'm "Tamiya only" i'll go for a TRF801x. Any chance that we will see them easily available also here in Europe? Can you give me some advice on were to find car and parts(Europe/UK)? Some time ago you posted a topic about you as a future TRF distributor for UK and Eu, am i wrong? If not there is any update about this? Thanks in advance for your time. Bye WWD |

You've already taken the UK national series with 4 straight wins with the 511 so for the sake of all the people who bought the 502 it would be nice to see you run it for the 2 remaining meetings.. I think it would help us all out with set ups etc.. Thanks |

35wt front - blue spring - 1.3 x 2 piston Middle hole on the arm - 2nd out on the tower inside hole on link with 1mm washer - 3mm washer outside. 30wt rear - yellow cut spring (1 coil off) 1.4 x 2 piston Inside hole on arm - 2nd out on tower try meduim wheel base. with regards to the hubs: the more toe in you have - the more rear side bite the car will generate. the less, the looser the rear end. sometimes you can even turn the .5 blocks around so overall you have 2.5 degrees of toe in. this helps the rear end pivot on slow twisty tracks. lee

normally i use weights to stop the car grip rolling, settle it through bumps or to stop wheeling..... on dirt i normally run a light car with the weight (apprx 30g) under the rear U plate and in front of gear box, and also a small amount up front. (20-30) to stop wheeling. Lee
