QUOTE(arold88 @ Jan 29 2009, 01:06 PM) still have lots of parts that i need to buy.. can any1 xplen me whats the 1way wheel speciality? is it increase speed?or stabalization? One way Wheels improves cornering speed. Suppose your car is doing a right turn. The wheels on your left side (outer wheels) has to cover greater distance than the right side wheels (inner wheels). Using one way wheels will let the left side wheels spin more than the inner wheels, thus improving cornering speed by reducing drag experienced due to difference in distance travelled by left and right wheels. However One way wheels are heavier than standard wheels and are slower on straights.

Normal spray or acrylic cannot stick to polycarbonate and will flake off. (Personal Experience  )

hye guys... i just found this thread actually.. yesterday I saw my friend's Y!M avatar, he put up Liberty Emperor's picture in it and then we started talking about the long lost hobby of ours..
I have a question.. is this Tamiya Underground's track at 1U is open to public? Means everyone can bring their car and test the track? If its open, then can I use my heavily modified car (non-tamiya) to test the track???
Thanks!!!
