Some questions for you, if you don't mind...
- What cars did the other NT1 drivers drive before switching to the NT1?
- How was the traction?
- Do you have a picture of the track? Was it sweeping or technical?
Thanks!

Good question, it is almost traction roll condition. Xrays didnt have the oneway so little disadvantage com. to the 720s ( and most only had their car few days before... like me
)i'll try to get a link of a video. It is almost oval outside and technical on the inside. Last week T. record was 22.5, today it gone down 20.s
Xray was leading the race half lap until some flam out problem.....
lost 2 lap never catch up to the first after. End up 2ndBut I have no doubt Xray will have strong performance in this part of the world.

[QUOTE=kitracer]out of the dozen raced today, almost all of them run spool.
Some used 60K and some used 80K rear (this is Xray oil)
The fastest Xray ran Spool and 30K rear( serpent oil)
What does runnig spool mean

A spool is the same as a solid axle.

building NT1
Today I build the NT1...what an amazing kit! This went together so easy that I forgot to take notes, but I am glad to see the car done and in only about 5 hours. I do intend on running the one-way and spool for testing, but back to the kit.
The quality of the car is awsome! I've been driving Mugen for the past 3 years, but the Mugen didn't have the quality feel this car does. I made a carbon fiber battery tray for the car but hadn't put it on yet, I'm tryin to use the option of dropping the fuel tank the 3mm with a stock battery pack. I'm upset that I won't be able to run the car till this coming weekend, as I don't want to run it on the road. The car has so much free roll, unlike the Mugen that had to "wear" in before it had good free roll. Mr Hudy did an excellent job.
Just a couple pics....oh, don't pick on my wife's table cloth. I blame her for my head-ache.

Where is a good place to get some of the Hudy Tools required to build and maintain the Nt1. I am having a hard time finding the flywheel tool and the pinion tool, and the grease and lubes they suggest. Are there some acceptable tools available that are not hudy brand for these items? Sorry guys I am new and will be asking many stupid questions at first.

What's the chance that the aluminum hex hubs from Serpent or another car will fit the Xray axles to replace the plastic ones? Can someone check?
