They look good. How are they holding up for you? Did you get the wider rear wheels?

Yea I had to take it apart cause the car kept jumping forward after a stop. The clutch spring came out of place. So decided to do the flywheel while its out. How do I get the flywheel out?

Did a few runs today with my RS4-3 and it was a wild ride. The car is so weightless its almost as lite as my sons Sprint 2 Flux. On one of the speen runs I was doing the car cought wind, picked up and flew. I wish I had a vid on that but I do have a vid on one of my runs.

Tomorrow i will be drag racing it at a track, will post pics and vids of that soon

Carbon fiber shock towers, upper deck and custom chassis. Titanium screws, ceramic bearings on the car and in the motor. Port job to the motor actually removes weight off the engine, I cut the head, shortened the motor mounts. Don't use aluminum upgrade parts but the shocks are ok.

Rx7devil,

For the flywheel and shoes, I am using a Buku set that comes with flywheel, shoes and springs. I really recommend these because they are easily adjustable.

Wow a turbo motor that quick. What clutch shoes are you running in that thing. I have the hpi 18ss in my mt2 with the racing clutch in it and its no where near that quick of accelerating
