As Paul Simon said a few decades ago...."there must be 50 ways to leave your lover"............!

Well, there are well more than 50 ways to get a nice chatter going in a plastic or metal chassis and since our good buddy, ShotGunDave, seems to have lost his chatter in this new-fangled torsion bar chassis that he's constructed, I thought it would be nice of all of us to give him a hand, so that he can find his chatter again.

I'll give him the first sure-fire way, and I'm counting on the rest of you to give him more.........many more. We'll just morph Simon's old lyrics into: "there must be 50 ways to get your chatter"............. ;)

1. run different tire sizes on your rear wheels.............!

2. Re-solder it to have a little dog-track - Jack! :D

Or you could install six correct sized o-rings on the wheels to give it that low rider look.

Run over a staple...

Drop some CA in the torsion tube in the middle, diddle. Lift one front wheel as it sets. Bets?

That should get his chatter back.

Here's a plan, Stan:

Independent front axles are popular now............but, be ahead of the curve........go to independent rear axles; you only have to mount the crown gear on one of them...............your choice............ :dance:

Allan

Don't need to be coy, Roy.............just trim one braid significantly shorter than the other....................................... ;)

True the rear tires on the axle with a loose setscrew. Then tighten the setscrew and try to race! Don't ask me how I know this one... Don't ask how my race went last night either... just don't ask.. :oops:
