The 23mm plastic wheel adaptors from Tower that allows proline 23 mm rims to be mounted to the Terror hubs finally started to strip out under power. I have changed the tires several times and each time they are put on and off the plastic gets a little looser. So...... I am back to the stock terror wheels and tires ( which actually work the best anyway, just don't look as good IMO). The STS .28 had too much torqque and not enough rpm's so I put in a 16 tooth Robinson Racing clutch bell, made for the Savage. Fit is perfect, and puts the big gear almost in the center of the clutch gear. Performance is up and clutch heat is up. I really need to get to a more open area, so it can do more than just start out all the time. The STS is not quite the engine the Collari .32 was and does not pull the 16 tooth gear quite as well, so I think the perfect choice is a 15 tooth, which I hope to get very soon. I am an old man with slow reflexes, but I can get easily a 40 foot wheelie up the street, and if there was more safe room I know I could do more. So, for me, am doing good. The Grandsons are coming over tomorrow, so I expect the Terror to get a good workout and be in need of repairs at the end of the day. Grandsons drive RC trucks like a video game. No consequences. Looking forward to new videos from BB. Later, Dennis
