well guys going fast is not racing its about skill. not talking drag racing here. you have to test and practice lines. decide to bank or not do you double triple or quad. what tires work for you and track conditions. cant just have a fast car as it needs to be controllable.

going fast and racing are not the same

no different than crawling really. different tires/foams for different rock types, ambient temperatures, rig weight, seeing/picking lines through obstacles, adjusting weight bias based on the course, etc...

like i said, ive tried it, it just never stuck. crawling is where its at for me.

I will post a new thread of which day i plan on going. I need to test my set-up. I might need a custom Panhard set up since i changed to the x-trails chassis and mounted the servo to the frame. I am having trouble with that. I have run it in the back yard on my Rock pile seems ok but according to what i have read online i need the panhard setup.

I told you Eddie, just take it off your stadium truck to see if it lowers the temp and go play with all of them. Unfortunatly i have to work. Damn it. Oh I think the pinion on your stadium truck is 17 or 18.. Do It!!!!
