    Windshield Storage

    In case there are others out there like me with a crowded garage that need a safe place to store their windshield while working on their RCR-40s, here's a pic of a small crate crate I built this morning that conforms to the shape of the windshield. If you take a piece of 1/4" x 6" pine...

    Thanks Mark, You are absolutely right, the first question I received this morning was "what are the ratios?". They are now listed in the "Question and Answer" section of the listing. Best Regards, Al

    Transaxle ID

    Hi Rich, O1E is cast into the side of the black casting - see pic below. FRK identifies the ratio(s), I believe the rest of the characters before FRK are just serial numbers. Regards, Al

    Well, I think Paolo and John both deserve a prize. I don't know what Ron was planning, but I will provide a prize of equal or cooler :) value since we have what I consider a tie. It is a 1/32 scale Scalextric slot car. Much more detail than one would expect from a 5 inch long model intended...

    New Audi 01E Six Speed

    Hi Dean, Opinions vary, but definitely less than a ZF. 400 HP/TQ is probably the upper limit (with no burnouts). If you search the forum for 01E or O1E you will find a lot of threads on this topic. It will not bolt up to an SBF without an adapter plate etc. Regards, Al
