I race BSCRA cars in the UK and for inline gears I always cut a piece of 3/32 brass tube to place between the gear and the bushing, you have to cut this so that you have the right amount of play in the gear mesh. It makes it very difficult to strip a gear, but each time you prep for a race meeting you may have to add a very thin washer or replace the tube to compensate for the wear of the gear.

Hi Andrew! Thank you for your comments!! Happy Racing and God Bless!!!

Hi Mark, greetings from Australia. Thanks for sharing this information, I plan to change my car's setup based on the setup tips, excepting the wood guide which is not allowed on our wood tracks! . With regard to the 2 body screws I assume that you tighten them fully. Its an area of inconsistency that some people loosen body screws on cars that have a pod, so loose motor pod and loose body, so I don't know which is best. Also, the extra 2 screws you added have to screw into something....so in addition to the screw metric screw pack, you have to obtain the red cups, not sure how you purchase those, thanks

Hi Greg! Thank you for watching!! I leave the body screws just a little loose so that it can move a bit. Yes, you will need two additional cups for the extra screws. NSR part number 4876. You should be able to find them. Happy Racing and God Bless!!!

I painted an NSR F1 in the same livery for my brother! We only race in the SF Bay Area so we probably won't cross paths. :)

Are you sure the motor isn't in upside down? The crown gear looks to be on the opposite side to what is conventional (for me).
