Default DETC410 a positive note.

Hi all I just wanted to say after many question about building the car, it was finaly complete and raced at the weekend.
From fellow racers I got "oh a Durango, they break" I've read over the past months on here and other forums and there seems to be a mixed reaction to that statement. I am in a club full of Yokomos and the odd few other brands.

I had a brillant days raceing and after not racing for three months the car gave me such conferdence, it was setup on the base low traction outdoor setup and it handled like it was on rails.
Yes it does have its weakness and I am sure Durnago know this and as anyone would say if you crash anything hard enough it will break.

I broke the spool out drives, to save messing around I just up graded these to the steel options.
The only other issue is the shock ball mounts unscrew them selves or the long grub screw into the arm unscrews. The straight forward answer is use the kit provided lock tight.

I now look forward to my next race meeting 😀
