Flip your battery box around. You'll notice there's a notch cut out to make room for the spur.

I've never used those tires in a rally aplication, but I mounted them the same as you had on your car. I did switch them around but found no difference in traction. One thing I can say is they last forever.

OK..so I re-enforced the body side with foam so it doesn't flap around and added a little something for that real life action...

Sweeeet, I really like that camera. The smaller footprint. Just as good quality as the gopro. Is it durable though? A go fast offroad rally car will find out. That's forsure. Can't wait for video. Very nice .

Nice updates!

FYI to DRX RTR folks. Check your dog bone/universal bearings. My two rear inner knuckle bearings are toast.

This thing is more durable than the GoPro. Plus it's not a brick on the rig. 1080HD. We should be able to get some good footage. Just need to make sure I have the time to edit it. I'm like a kid at Christmas...here it is 5:30am and I can't sleep waiting to get out and do some Rally.
Wife was trying to get me in bed...I said I can't...I got a Fever...and the only prescription is Rally.

Checked mine when I installed the Universals.

We had another Rally GTG today. We were a little ambitious with the course layout...so much that we didn't get much more than about quarter throttle through it.

After about an hour of opening it up...we came up with an awesome track...

I have some On-Board Video but here are some stills from it to see what the Demon Child was up against...


Who is this person with the Subaroo?




Can anyone anticipate what is coming next???

Caption this one...

Rckcrwlr was following that Subie all day long!!

So much fun. That course was perfect. Should have climbed up on the backstop and snapped a pic for next time. Did you guys do anymore time trials after I had to leave?

I gotta make up that .26 sec on GDB next time.

Here's a few screen caps. That yellow car is like a magnet.

It's like target fixation.

Maybe because every other car on the track is blue and white. Except the red one but he is always in the back...

Yeah, Yeah. That camera is freakin awsome. I love that there is no fish eyes. Looks like fun, fun. T-bone was awsome and gruesome at the same time.

T-bone! I win. Looks like a fun day for sure. No fish eye on that camera certainly makes it a viable option.

Except for the last time trial of the day.

He cheated some how...goes from 1min 13 seconds to winning it at 1 min 5 seconds...
