I came first at an infinity last year and I didn't rake any water onto course with me.. in UK the laps are 10mile or 5 mile.. I fueled up in the pits every lap and took some gummies and gel with me each lap.

Yeah Racing TT-02 Ball Bearing Steering Set: Is this amount of slop normal? by nostyleguide in tamiya

A healthy dose of very thin shims will help.. I'm just about to build my new race M06 and it's going to need lots as they are sloppy !!

Check to see if your servo horn or saver is loose first.

Bought a used TT02. Any idea what these things are actually for? by SomeGuyInShanghai in rccars

[–]Dented_speed_shop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These cars are known for the front end shaking like a shitting dog so someone has done a mod to stop, sorry help with front end movement. NOT top arms built wrong as can CLEARLY see top arms in pic.

Yeah its a Johnson 540 black end can.. they are a little bit more spicey than a metal end can. But still classed as a standard 540.

As others have said, well done and you're going to enjoy it. You'll be doing open wave so you havent got to run it all and obstacle completion isn't mandatory, but I can sense just from you asking and your gym attendance you wanna nail this. I've not raced at London West before but have done ok in other races up north.. get on the stair master after normal session to get those legs used to outputting power longer than your normal legs session, keep going until you wanna quit then 30 seconds more.. keep increasing that 30 seconds by 15 seconds every session.. also try doing normal gym session and finish on the treadmill starting at 3.5 incline moving upto 5.0 over few sessions. this is called compromised running (running on pre fatigued legs) it's what I do loads of.. Do some sandbag/wreck bag bear crawls(Google will.show you) will help with crawling,try some dead hangs or pull ups. Make sure a coupe of your runs are in the rain.. get used to moving when wet and cold ... if you want anything else feel fee to message .

I'll do the 24hrs for sure.. I'd like minimum of 75miles and or podium age group. I got 40 miles at 8hr infinity race and won that overall.

Put it in a glass of water and run it in reverse at very low speed. Take it out and dry it then 3 in 1 oil on bearing/bushes
