dont throw out those chopsticks,they have a ton of uses,coil your servo wires around them,nice and neat.apply grease and oil to gears and such.rub around the edges of decals,stickers,window masks they dont scratch the body.stir up paint gets down to the edge of paint bottles to get all the pigment up.wrap a rag or paper towel around them to wipe out shocks when rebuilding.and on and on.............later steve

I'm not sure if it bugs other people but it drives me nuts so I went on the hunt for a solution... Well actually I went to home depot to get some hardware for a table saw these little rubber washers their about 1/8" thick and like 10cents a piece so I grabbed four of um Put them on the top of my body mounts put the body on and drove it around no more rattle I stopped changed my battery put the body back on ab the. Realized i was missing two of the washers so i got two more went home glued them on using tire glue and no bidy rattle since

parma has these foam washers with sticky tape on them,the come 10 in a pack for a couple of bucks,you stick them to the inside of the body,check them out...........

Goose bumps or calibers????? Hard pact track

never tried the goose Bumps but Calibers are a good choice . If you track is dry and dusty then go with a harder compound. If its dry with no dust then goto the softer compound.
