  1. I got my Nitro Thunder from Neil down at time tunnel, when i asked him his advise was to run the car on a flat surface for the first 5-6 tanks, but dont take the car above half throttle. The reasoning behind running the car was that if you have the car on a stand for the running in then the 1st time that you actually run the car you will end up stripping the drive gear. Also as i use the 30% fuel he said dont play with the fuel setting, as the car is setup by tamiya to run a little rich. All i can is say that this has worked for me and my car runs great (well it did until i hit a metal bin in the dark).
  2. Did think about going back to 2WS, but having locked diffs it means the turning circle would be huge.
  3. Hi all, this is only like my 3rd post so if i get things wrong sorry. I have a TLT-1 max climer which is stock right now(well locked diffs is the only mod), im running 4ws but the rear steering is really bad and takes miles and ages to straighten. rear steering is done as in the manual using a standard y lead, does anybody eles have this issues or know how to overcome this issue. Have read in some forums that people are using reverse y leads and reverse servos but ive never seen one.

  5. HI there, this is my first post so sorry if i get a few things wrong[:I], ive got a tamiya TA04 car, and i wanna give it a little higher ride hight for when im not on a real flat surface, ive got a extra set of shock and was thinking of taking out one of the small spacers, as this would let the piston on the shock move out more. the only thing im thinking is that lenght of the drive shafs would need to be a ikle longer(and gonna need longer springs). Does any body out there think that tiss will work or has tried it??
