New Items ALL NEW DYNASTY 92TX AXLES!

I have been racing and selling for a long time and these are hands down the best axles I have ever seen/used. They are smooth and fast and VERY EASY to polish.

All of my cars run them, and I switched from the 93's and found instant speed with old cars! Thank you for these axles!
 
Now another question i have...Would it be better to leave the double step to keep that little bit of weight near the center of the wheel and be able to shave a little more off the inside the the perimeter? Or is having the coned outer hub make a bigger impact?

I know for all my retired wheels it was that edge of the cone that was the most fragile and showed signs of wear or got dented.
 
Now you see the beauty of it.
Runs best with small flat surface against another flat surface ( only about 4 mills overlap) - way less wear and wheel is stable for many more races and bingo- you can reduce the moment of inertia for a way faster wheel if you cut wheels for this axle leaving the step and reducing the rim- over time- all wheels will find a way to run faster with this axle.
 
Have a question about these axles. Got a set of them before mid america and wanted to know what needs to be done before using them.

Are they ready to race out of the bag ?
Do they only need slight polishing ( if so what grit ) ?
Can they be bent for the DFW and where should i notch the axle ?

was thinking about making an amateur BASX car

Any shared wisdom would be appreciated

Yes, you can race them as is, but as with any axle from any vendor, there is more speed in polishing it further. There are CNC marks on the axle which I prefer to remove. They are small and may seem insignificant, but every little thing helps in making a car faster. Figuring all that out is the trick.

Do they only need slight polishing ( if so what grit ) ?
I would, especially if you plan to race in a league. Some use micro mesh and others use 3M polishing paper, starting with the lowest grits working towards the highest (12,000 micromesh - there are different measures of grits), while there are others who polish by other means. Ultimately, you want to get to a point where you are using Mothers or Cheeta (sold by DD4H) as a final step.

Can they be bent for the DFW and where should i notch the axle ?
Put the axle in the wheel. With a sharpie, place a mark on the axle where it exits the other side. Put the axle in a dremel (or drill press) and using a either a hack saw blade or another Dremel, cut a small groove in the axle at the mark. I have also used a screw slot file. Either use an axle bender or a hammer/screwdriver (with the tip of the screwdriver in the groove just cut) to create the desired bend.

You might regret that. /images/boards/smilies/wink.gif I said that almost 3 years ago, and its now became quite a hobby of mine. PM me if you need help.
