    no. and no. hehehe… it did do **kph on the Tamiya though. Jamie’s the man to ask about rpm… there was, however, a very unhappy 1/10 nitro nut after my efforts at Brush Farm on Sat. morning. Basically, double the speed you’ve seen my Supra doing. Quite crazy speeds really :approve:

    good surface but bodies get killed in very fun and creative ways

    you thought the silver GTR copped it on Saturday Talldude? You should see the Aus. sig car… bugger all front end. On the other hand, a courier has just handed me a parcel… …opening… …as hoped. Sweet. One 2 fast 2 furious Skyline shell in my hands… dribble:p

    I found this whole offset thing kind of annoying at first, but then I figured it out. Getting an MR-02 did not help, as their wheels are different again. Good that you figured a reference chart, last thing people want to do is get the wrong size wheels in plastic, or worse, alloy… most narrow body are 8.5mm wheel no offset, race spec (wide) have 8.5mm front (2mm offset) and 11.5mm
    rear (no offset). Others like the race spec GTR and its seems your Ferrari has about 3.5mm offset front and approx. 1.5mm offset at rear. WRX and the like have custom offset, I think about 1.5mm all round on narrow wheels. I can send you a complete spec list if you want…:smiley2:
