| I've been running mine flipped and it works great. The horn stays out of the way much better.

the size of them is great(especially shrinked) i have a pack through them and the drag break seems to be way better then it was when you could only run up to 100% startup is smooth like all castle products Quote:

The truck works really well at that weight, I will need to figure out some foams for it. The cool part about it is I can add weight exactly where I need it. I did try adding 3 slugs per front and it brought me to 5.5. Still a full pound lighter then my berg at nats. That puts me a bit over a full pound of front bias! It is easier to drive heavy but when its light it does some amazing things! I will start playing with my shocks a bit more now that is driving. With the small amount of sprung weight I think I can raise it considerably and not have some of the ill affects. | |

From what I felt, that is lighter than your 1.9 And about the weight of your super...... Reinventing the crawler you are! |

Ya thats what my berg weighed with the 454's, I honestly really miss it and will be going back to a light setup. I just can't get used to it at 6+. Are the axles that much lighter? I've got my berg rear axle down to 7.5oz without motor.
