Normal way, I have re-drilled the arms on the back, I like it with the shocks round this way and with the new rear bulk head it takes 2 mins to swap around

Here are a couple of naked pics:





You can see the Losi slipper mod on this shot, seems to work well and a bit easier to adjust, thanks to Trish for the help on this mod.

I need to drill my new wishbones. I have been running them on the back, but wishbones reversed. That reminds me I need to prep some losi shocks againas I am running schumachers at the mo.

Got some 7.5 yokes on order

Yes I like it with the Losi shocks, well till the Big Bores are out:

Below is a shock set up DC gave me for the Losi shocks

Hi Mark, orange pistons in the front blue in the back, a 2 mill limiter in the rear shock, inside in the oil, and full length ball cups, long, cut down to about 3/4 length, I had to play a bit to get the droop just right, today I had 37.5 in front and 30 in the rear, But I think I was oversprung and too thick today, couldnt be bothered to change, haha, i usually run green and pink springs, I would like to have tried 35 F and 25 R and 1 spring rate lighter all round, only cause it was so slippery today!

This was from a cold EPR meeting hence the last bit about it being slippery.

I find the 7.5 blocks calm the sterring down a bit, the std ones give it a bit more mid corner. Depends on how you like your car set up.

I have tried it with the wishbones reversed but it was very short that way, most of the local guys seem to drill the arms on the rear, Niggs etc and they seem to know what they are doing!

Having found myself with a bit of spare time, I thought I'd post up a photo before I go and break it...

Nice one mate.

I'm experimenting with the airbrush at the moment and this was my first go. Just liked the silver/black & orange on the the F1 cars and it seems to work on the CAT also.

It's not as nice as some of these other bodies posted but this is my effort.....My only question is if you race them also or just look at them with stars in your eyes
