Interesting write-up. My next upgrade will definitely be the ball diff. All I've done to my F40 I picked up yesterday was install a ball bearing set.
I came to the same conclusion concerning the differences between the MM and the RM chassis, although I expected the opposite. I drove with a Mazda 787 at my Dnano shop today, and he'd gain on/pass me on the straights, but I'd gain on/pass him in the tighter sections of the track. I think the Mazda's longer wheelbase has something to do with it being more at home on the straights as well.
Couple questions
:
Wouldn't the aluminum hubs cause for more rotating mass, therefore hindering top speed and acceleration?
If I need my dnano to have a little more steering authority, which tie rod should I try for a slight increase in steering authority over stock?
Do you know if there are different compound tires available or soon to be available?
Do I need a different motor mounting pod for the x-speed motor?
Your information is good, keep it coming.
One more thing, be sure to get some photos and video if you can of your club race. Thanks for the help.
