Enforcer 7 Direct Drive Manual

Thank you for purchasing the Enforcer 7 Sprint Car! Since its introduction in 1991 the Enforcer has consistently been the

most successful 1/10

scale sprint car competing on “high bite” dirt ovals across North America. The continued evolution

of the car over 25 years has led to the exciting new Enforcer 7, building on the strength of prior versions and adding

many new features.

This kit includes most of the parts required for the build. The following additional equipment must be added to complete

the car. (Be sure to check if the track you plan on racing at has any motor, battery or speed control restrictions.)

 Surface transmitter and receiver (minimum 2 channel.)

 1/10

scale electronic speed control

 540 size brushless motor

 Pinion gear (48 pitch, appropriate size for motor)

 2S hard case LiPo battery

 Low profile servo (1 inch or 25.4mm case height)

 Front and rear wheels and tires (2.0” diameter wheel)

 Silicone shock oil (30 weight recommended)

 Lexan paint and/or vinyl wrap for body

Building tips

Parts are made with tight tolerance and held to the side of a “snug” fit as wear is expected over time. Try as we

may, occasionally a burr may remain in a part and fit more tightly than desired. It is ok to use 400 Grit Sandpaper

or a .125” drill to SLOWLY relieve a part from time to time. Suspension components should always pivot and swivel

freely but without too much slop.

A lite to medium strength (usually the blue variety) thread locking fluid is suggested for all parts where metal screws

thread into other metal parts. This will keep the screws from vibrating loose during operation and still allow the screw to

be removed if needed. Remember it only takes a very small amount of thread-lock to secure the screw.

Do NOT use power screwdrivers to drive screws into parts. The fast rotation speed can melt and strip plastic parts

or cross-thread into the aluminum parts.

Lightly sand the edges of the carbon fiber pieces using a medium grade sandpaper to avoid splinters. A thin bead of

Super Glue can be used to seal the edges of the carbon fiber for more protection against chips and splinters.
