The web site will be updated soon with all the laset and greatest products, distributerships to order from and team roster for product support. Just to name a few of the team drivers to help with setup Monti P. is very helpful as well as Daryl, Duane, Ritchie Mack, Tommy Smith(aka. Tommy Tire) and myself will be here to help as will others.

barry has nuttin better to do...lol

i know he was nice enough to give me a pit space at the birds last year but i shure did pay hearing all the gossip about everybody hahaha.

Is there a new pan car in the works?
No there is not a new car in the works as of right now. There is a tray out that offsets the battery a little bit more and a cross brace that is thicker for more rigidity other than that nothing new. still a very competitive car no need to change just need to get it back in the hobby shops and in the racers hands.

p.s. Monti ....... after checking the website ..... SMILE already will ya ......haha.

The reason there is no smile is that I am in the "snowbirds daze". I have no idea where I am or doing. Needless to say the Rock Star followed by a Mt Dew chaser had worn off!

Roman you going to be in NC on Saturday?

Sorry but next weekend is the snowbirds warm up down here at tri-state.

Ive been running the Silva car , and a L4 with Silva parts for a few weeks now.. They been quite a bit faster then my previous car..

I know you said no new car in the works, but how about a chassis plate that allows for offset t plate?? I was thinking of having a one off version made.

Burbs if you want to off set your t-plate just move your batteries more towards the center. It gives the same effect as moving to the t-plate to the left.

-Monti-

Burbs, I was watching you run in 13.5 at Tri-Clone this past Saturday - which car were you running in that class - the "pure" Silva car or the 10L4 with Silva parts? I'm considering upgrading my old 10L4, so I was just curious.

You seemed to get it dialled in better between the 1st and 2nd round. (Or was it between the 2nd and 3rd?)

What's the difference between your 2 cars parts-wise, and what's the difference in how they run?

Thanks.

Hey Roman I have some tires for you Montie left wid me.
Silva cars run strong again at Rosewood. Went 3 secs faster with a few minor changes.

Yea Ditto how about Michael had a car that could of won the second duel but thought his cars first seems like another owner in 01 that we all know.

what size standoffs does the car require for the body post/shock brace?

.780 Hope this helps

Just an FYI but Silva Concepts parts can now be ordered directly from Silvaconcepts.net or you can have your local hobby shop contact Silva concepts to become a dealer.

Anyone have any setups to start out with for this car? It would be for carpet oval, 17.5 class. If you could, email it to me at jtnorth@nc.rr.com
Thanks in advance.

jt6 I will email you a baseline set up. It's one I used at the snowbirds a couple of years ago and took 5 in exp 19t.
