Hello everybody.

Congratulations for the new T4 and all new features, it seem great!

I have a question for the transmition. Which are the parts from the transmition that you must have new? Or more new possible...

I think blade (305241). About the shaft? How often do you change the shafts?

In my last race I had to change ecs and aluminium shaft from the front to the rear. Because my ECS shaft are too old, and had a lot of play. If I use the ECS in the front and the aluminium shaft in the rear, my car oversteed when I apply throttle.

Any more???

Thanks.

The shafts need to be replaced when they have too much play as you described. You can also try to change only the couplings and pins for example if this will help. Be sure to always have a small amount of black grease on these parts otherwise they will wear more quickly. I rebuild mine for every race. The blades will wear quickly too depending on the conditions. I recommend to change them before the shaft tear through them and damages your outdrives.

ECS in front and 50mm alu shafts in the rear, that is a very conventional set-up. If your car felt loose, you need to adjust your set-up! What setup were you running?

Thank you Alex.

My setup was this:

xform/index.php?act=view&ID=515&setup=t3_2012

The same track that was in the ETS.

You can see a video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R_tPREG3 ... e=youtu.be

Mi car is the 7 number. At the beginning, the white car behind the green car.

Thank you Alex.

Regards.

Try to use a harder rear anti-roll bar. Maybe 1.3 or 1.4 to make the car more stable. You can also use a softer front spring to take away some turn-in. Maybe use 2.6 both front and rear. I would also suggest to increase your front downstop to 5.6 to make the car a little bit more stable on corner entry and mid corner.

Ok thank you very much Alex.

In the last final I changed the front roll center from -0.75mm to 0.00mm, the car was a lot of more stable at corner entry for my drive style.

Regards.
