Status: offline 		well i do it just by looking. it's easy. what i do is just push them all the way in and then slowly back it out until i see a 1-2 mm gap. on bigger cars i do anywhere between 2-5 depending on size of spur and clutchbell/pinion. most mini cars are around the same size.

Status: offline 		the crunching noise isn't but the stall is. it doesn't happen if you keep moving, well actually it only happens to me sometimes, i fixed it by getting the gear mesh perfect.

Status: offline 		tighten the pinion up, or you could have cogging, does it do it towards the end of the pack or all the way through?

Status: offline 		dude this thing is aweeesome. i jumped my car at least 20 feet of a 6 inch high ramp. i musta only been a foot off the ground. i need to gear to 10/60 though. 11/60 isn't passing the 5 second rule after a pack. but it's 35 degree's (CELCIUS) HERE SO IT'S PRETTY HOOOOTTT.



ps: i thank you all for your help and i will post the video here in around 1 week and 3 days of me tearing up the track lol
