There were some new ones (TRC) at the track we raced at.  the TRC car uses the
old style Associated front end so you can dial in Camber adjustments, whereas
the Trinity car has a solid plate and no camber adjustmements.

This added feature is not without it's price though either.  The TRC car as a
few other componnets different from the Trintiy car and one major one in my
eyes is the way the rear pod is dampened and connected to the chassis and the
way the damperdisks work - kind of cheezey.

I don't think there's a handeling advantage to the new TRC chassis with the
camber adjustments, it just doesn't wear tires as quick and cone them like the
Trinity car can.

As far as parts, my local store had more for the Trinity car than the TRC, but
personally I never broke anything on my Trinity car so I never needed parts.

So which is better, I have heard the the TRC have more readily available
parts, being that most are interchangeable with Associated?  I have seen
and driven breifly the TRC, I know they are meant to be identically
powered, but for upkeep and repair and service, which is the best buy??
Thanks.
