British Radio Car Association Shows how a Model Stock Car Is Born Ep2 

Hi looking to get back into this and just wondering who stocks the components to buy so I can build my own car. Just restored my old Mk1 mardave 1/8th stockcar and fancy building something new. Thanks, Nigel.

So you actually build a clutch simular to a "centax" clutch on a "Serpent" car. Except that the shoes are made for a "normal" clutch housing. Nicely done. I have one question, how do you lubricate the clutch, because you don't have bearings between clutch and crankshaft. Do you use some kind of thin oil? Or are you afraid that the oil is running onto the shoes, and therefore you don't lucricate at all? I used to race stock cars in Belgium in my early days back in 1984-85, toghether with "Jeepee". But then I got over to 1/8 IC cars. Back then we still used clutches with 8 teeth onto the housing, so they had a needle bearing. By the way, isn't it much easier to use some thread lock on the nut instead of flattening the tread. that is what I would do, that is what I've always done on my centax clutches.
