If you think 2s is nuts, 3s has easily 2x the speed and power..... And apparently 4s is the sweet spot!

I think I might give it one more go once I can get the tires to stay on the bead....

Farmer, what spur and pinion tooth count are you running? I was at 18/80, I'm going to try 15/87 to hopefully get the car more manageable speed wise... I have the start up power on low with it in strictly in sensored mode...

Ok, back to the task at hand....

Maybe we could set up a GTG and run it like a practice G6-ish type run. Get the rules hammered out that we want and see how it goes.

Any ideas for a park that has some good terrain where we can do this at? Someplace in the middle for everyone, I have three to five parks with in ten miles of my house, but nothing super great.

Found out what the weak link in the wraith is with a pro4 on 3s!



Time for a super shafty!

Ohh, and that was with the slipper locked down all the way... Looks like it just doesn't matter!

I'm just finishing up my track out back. Made for the trucks, but I'm making accommodations for Wraiths and rally cars. Should be done in a couple weeks hopefully. Not sure what we could do, but I'm open to ideas. It's a bit over 6' wide and centerline is about 300'. I still need to finish some jumps, bury the posts on the stand, pull some weeds, etc.

My rock pile is just off the first curve. I've already been configuring alternate routes for a rally car and for the Wraiths. Only thing with that is you'd have to follow the truck, couldn't do it all from the stand. So the "WraithCross" would combine the rockpile, SC track, and maybe another rocky section. Should be sweet. =)
