HYDRAULICS well kinda
im working on some other bit projects the pinion gear one is getting worked on but ive also thought of a way to put in hydraulics(wannabe hydraulics) im going to take out the turn coils (i dont know the right word theyre the copper wire thats used to make the car turn) on one of my old cars adn put them above both of the front wheels but have the coils connected together so the same magnet type, then i will put a magnet attached to each front wheel making cure it is the same magnet type as the coils are when activated... resulting in the magnets repeling the coils making the front go up the switch for this will be controlled by the turning switch so that way left will make the car rise and right will probably make the car do nothing the problem i have come across is the car wont be able to turn it will probably be a drag strip car or just to show off please post your opinions and ideas

this glue is super strong. if it can hold rubber tires to a huge .21 motor, then i think it is ok for a bit char-G  it also comes in various thickness like thin, and med. i hope this helps

ViperKid, I think you must have misread your manual, the tires are supposed to go on the rims!

i didn't mean you glue the wheels to the motor. i mean't you glue the tires to the wheels, then bolt the wheel to the axle, they let the .21 rip. i'm sorry if i mislead anyone, if you glued your wheels to your motor because of me i am very sorry
