According to Tamiya Rules (if not mistaken), you can't mount mass damper on the roller pole (those 2 at the front) as they'll be count as rollers.
Correct me if I'm wrong. hmm.gif

BTW, my car for TLC MARA Super Speed race last night.
user posted image

Best time was 13.31seconds. Time to beat 12.74seconds (may be lower by the time the time attack session was over)
Top qualifier/Champ is sifu Yaya with his SuperII doing 12.03seconds on the same track.

They all break-in their batteries. Me? NeoChamp with Eneloop quick charger only liao! doh.gif
But still, good race. Learnt a lot with sifus from TU and Speed Houz giving inputs on how to set the rollers and stuff to clock better time. notworthy.gif
*
Any idea where else to mount the damper for the front? seems like MA chassis with AR plate got holes block sad.gif

Btw how do you cut those clear body cowl?

how to remove scratches & dent[minor] ?  icon_question.gif
especially on chassis bumper. sweat.gif
I went with a mach dash engine + hex hole ball bearings 1st. tongue.gif
*
Get a new cowled or Multi stay. Nothing much can be done about scratch remover since this ain't a metallic metal paint. biggrin.gif

Your next step should be getting improved gearing with metal bearing set. Roughly rm 20-22. Less friction improve speed.

speaking of bearings,for gearing usually we use the 520 bearings,right?
and one last thing,which is better for the wheels shafts..the hex hole or round hole bearings?
thanx
*
For MS chassis they have bearing and metal shaft set as upgrade kit around rm 20-22 in which you don't have to settle with 520 or 620.

For super2 bearing gear set, once you purchase the upgrade gear set be it 3.5:1 or 3.7:1 they have provide metal shaft and bearing.

Don't waste money buying 520 or 620 bearing for gearing.

Hex hole bearing is good cause it makes your bearing works with the shaft. While round hole bearing has almost zero friction and won't be turning the bearing too.

could I buy double aluminum rollers[rm37/35 a pair] for front instead? sweat.gif
*
So far, double aluminum rollers be it 13-12mm or 9-8mm are great for front.

Usually price can get RM 35 if you purchase more than a pack biggrin.gif

Most of the time MA chassis only needs minimal dampers... for example on simple semi-speed tracks.
Hence the reason of those thinner dampers, I guess.

For my case, I'm using MA chassis festa Jaune. Had problem when after jump then landing. Off the track. Now wonder do I need to sacrifice the cowl to install damper on front. Tonight will try to install FRP brake set.

did your car overshoot? or was it a clumsy landing?
*
The jumping section was far from me. Judging its a bad landing when speed picks up. First two lap it's safe. Once it goes for the 3rd lap when the motor goes to its top speed. That's when shit happens. Jump and landed and tipping off the track. My car weight is considerable heavy. Wonder do I need to go any heavier.
