- TOP Racing Photon EX - Steven Weiss - Motor 3mm out -



Today i move the Motor 3mm more out to get a better Balance on the Car. I remember, the new HB TCXX goes 3.5mm more out on the Motormount. The difference was big! The Car was much easier in Fast left and right Corners and also better on Power and on the Straight. I Test it on a Carpet Track, but the result will be the same on Asphalt.
Seems strange as most new kits from other manufactures highlight the fact that the motor is newly placed further inboard as an advantage?

Yes right, but Yokomo placed the Motor also 1mm more out now! You can Test it, for me was much better today! And if you Check the Balance on our or other Cars, you can see it! I remember from the Worlds. Naoto from Yokomo and other Drivers was using weights on the Roof on the Bodyshell that the Car more working! It is not always the Right way for Rubber Tires to go more to the middle and make the Car more Narrow.
