thanks. ive got a question. what is the hyper 9.5?
tower stocks all their parts but to me its pretty close to an 8.5?

also, are these the right gasket thingys?

and they recon that these bearings (http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXTNY4&P=7) have 1/3 less friction than the stockers. would it be a worthwhile upgrade, or is it a waste of money? 1/3 seems quite a bit though, and my car (somereason) is far from smooth...


is it normal for the CD bearings to not spin much/for long? like they dont seem to spin much but are smooth (and new), just seemed strange, like the oil was too thick or something in the bearings...

also, ive just found this: http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXDEN5&P=7

is that what im after, sometimes i just wish i could see it infront of me before buying them! o well...
emailed mike, it would be awesome to have another side of the mount, which would match and provide extra support, but would the machining be accurate enough to eliminate any play, ideally the bearing would have to be forced into each side, but the mount i recieved is a tad loose, which makes getting it in and out simple, and with the plastic one clamping it down is solid... perhaps a clamping one would be the solution?? more cost though

thanks MM for your advice so far :)
