D1:10 random video: part 10. Final

Looks like we are done here. Final video from Italian guys.
It's probably top 6, with my Russian mate Nikita at work.

D1:10 random video: part 7 and part 8

Whoever this guy is, he is spamming us with his videos, which is pretty cool actually.
So, there we have it. Part 7 and part 8 respectively.
Part 7 is probably group B, and 8 is group A. I have to admit, that I saw more interesting duels in group B and below, rather than in group A. What is really worth seeing is at the end of video 8, where Takahiro (s15) chases Adoru (BMW). Takahiro has MAD skills and very very heavy body.

Can't embed them guys, so below are the direct links.

D1:10 random video, part 4 and 6

It resembles a story with 3 pigs, when police found pig #1 and pig #3, and then was trying to find pig #2, while there was no pig #2 at all.
After video #1, and video #2, we have video #4 and #6.

Video #4 have some footage of me (Look for red BMW) and a lot of Adoru.

Video #6 can not be embedded for some reason. But anyway, both of them are available in 1080 on youtube.

D1:10 random video, part 2

Yaay. Another video from D1:10. Mostly, is is filled with italian drifters. But eve this is a pure luck - seems like all news about D1:10 is a secret and a big mystery.

CVD mod. The hard way.

Now you all remember the previous post, about the easy way. Today I tried something more hard.
Basically, I had 45mm square wide angle dog-bones. They did not fit the CVD cup, because the ball joint was too big. So, I had to widen the cup, and also widen the pin holes.
Everything turned out great. No play, very smooth, and stiff - almost like a factory CVD. Angle increase is significant, as you can see from the picture below. Now I will have to find a way to increase Steering rack travel to handle these nearly 60 degrees of lock.

Onevia gets Uras'd; part 3. Finished

Here it is. Not as wide as I expected. Only +5-6 mm in total on the rear and +3-4mm on the front. Can't even fit my +12 wheels. +8 are still pretty good though.
I can't tell exactly, what I feel. One minute - I love it, other - I hate it. Maybe I should refresh the front bumper too...

It was such a shame to find out, that white LRP paint turned out to be pearl white (Scumbag salesman).
To me, it was more like a pearl base for white color. But anyway, I had no will to go to the farthest end of the city for another overpriced 150 can of paint, so I backed the parts with tiny coat of this pearl white, and then with silver. Of course, colors did not match, since body is backed with white. I am thinking of respraying the whole car from the outside.
