Great video, thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. Would you happen to have any Group C that you want to let go? I am in the market for some, thanks!
Update: I got my own new Group C, which I want to tune as you are describing here... so, could you please advice on what specific type of screws for the 4 front axle replacement and the 2 motor holder ? Thank you !
Very good explanation, thanks. Just wondering how you can set the front ride height without the wheels built-in. Also where are the spacers to go that you are mentioning here? I learned that straightening a slot it chassis is often needed, and will give you a much smoother running car. Keep on making these interesting videos 🙂!
The chassis ride height is set with spacers between the guide and the chassis. After the chassis ride height is set, you then set the front wheel/tire height. The two are independent of each other. I've found most SlotIt chassis to be pretty straight, but if you have one that's not you may need to straighten it.
That's what I started with for weight. This car ran fine with no additional weight. 7mm screws for the motor pod and 9.5mm for the body. SP159901 and SP159902
Nice video...I'm new to the 1/32 slot car world...Great information on here...Thanks
What size set screws are used on the bottom and top front end to set tire height. Thank You
2x3mm on the top, 2x6mm on the bottom
@@norcalslotcarsceneandvinta3518 Thank You Jim
No mention of chassis flattening! I’m surprised.
Where can I get a copy of rules and or guidelines for race, say Slot It nationals in El Segudo . Thanks

No, I don't have any extra cars at the moment.

@@matteomarongiu-porcu23 Front axle bottom are 2mmx6mm, top are 2mmx3mm. Motor screws are 2mmx4mm.
@@norcalslotcarsceneandvinta3518 Thank you, appreciated !
What thickness of the shim you used on the motor pod?
Not sure what shims you mean.
Great video, I have this car and it's slow. What are the part numbers, please!
The part numbers are in the video. Just slow, or slower than other Slotit Gp C cars?
@@norcalslotcarsceneandvinta3518 i need some part numbers. Please, it would really help to have the numbers.

The spacers go around the guide stem, pushing it slightly away from the chassis.

factory gearing are you guys allowed to change the gearing if you wanted to ?
Great info and looking forward to using it in the near future!
I also use NSR super grip tires in my cars
Awesome thank you!
Brilliant video - thanks!
Very nice man
Is that the only bit of weight you use ? behind the rear of motor ? i love the sloting plus screws also, what part number do you use ? thanks

awesome stuff thanks for info.....would like to visit u guys for some racing? what's your racing schedule look like. I'm from La Verne, CA in So Cal.
We don't have a set schedule in NorCal. You plan on being in the area anytime soon?
@@norcalslotcarsceneandvinta3518 I would like to come race with u guys asap. Id like to come up in February sometime.
Whats your theory behind the ballast behind the motor?
More weight over the rear axle
@@norcalslotcarsceneandvinta3518 why ? surely you want as little weight otherwise you get a pendulum effect, interesting take.
@@leeg131313 it creates more drive off the corners
@@norcalslotcarsceneandvinta3518 i would expect the weight transfer of the car accelerating to do that , but i will give it a try
Polar moment?
Thanks for these tuning tips.
At 1:11 do you have any problem with the superglue causing fogging of the headlight covers?
No, I don't. Just a little drop with a toothpick and let it flow into the seam. Another type of glue might be better however.
