AFX Mod
I was weak...I was off my medication...I was going on days without sleep...so I took a drill, enlarged the rear axel mounts, and snapped in an AFX slot car rear axel. Holy Moly I thought...it just might work. And so Project Formula was born. From there I swapped the front hubs with AFX hubs and now it has slot car tires and wheels all around. I now have an endless supply of wide tires, it sits much lower to the ground (zero rolls), awesome traction...this can only mean it was destined for an F1 makeover.
The front AFX tires are a lot smaller than the stock Zip ones so ground clearance was actually affected by the stearing hubs and the trim lever. I little dremel action and a seriously stiff suspension arm did the trick. Now you can actually drop the body as far as you want without having to tub out the wells. Seeing how I'm going with an open wheel body anyhow, I didn't bother butchering one.
Stay Tuned...
