Thanks, I want to lower my rear bumper a little more to increase my leverage on the front wheels to get more traction. I' m not sure though, it's already lower than I want.

Regardless, all around performance is key. ( Unless your Jake then the hill climb is key) I could add some wheel weight upfront. We will see. I need to get outside and do more testing.

Remember though then you must run all obstacles with that much weight up front. No changing of tires/wheels. (already tried this approach with Scott )

He's right, no changing the truck between runs. I'm a jerk like that.

Hey can I change my shocks? No different than 1:1 scale using air shocks or that and they can change that.

you can change the oil wt. but nothing that would affect the ride height.
