With what hubs?

475's in the front and 850's with an 1/8" spacer in the rear

[Erik D_lux]

I switched out my .5 wide wheels for .7 wide. It actually made me a bit narrower by doing that. I know we had some questions on why our widths are different. Now I am at 11.250 on Sedonas, .7 wheels and 350 hubs. At least its a bit closer to what you have and makes me feel better.

What width do you think you would want to run in the rear? Do you have any of my .250 wide spacers? I thought when you said you were running my "big spacer" in the rear thats what you meant.

When are you getting your new hubs for the front? Do you have a lazy supplier or something

That is a big bias in front to rear wheelbase. Do you notice it wanting to turtle when in transitions where you only have one front and it's opposite side rear touching with that much bias?

Ya, I think he is to busy taking care of his family or something! I can wait.

How big are the "big" spacers?

A half inch a side is to much. It still carries a tire fine? Not sure what you mean by "turtling"?

[Erik D_lux]

Big spacers are 1/4" thick. Just those alone would get you to 10.5". If I were you and wanted more I would even hesitate to run a couple of spacers doubled up. Then you could run any width you want in the rear. Probably a lighter way to get to a wider width anyhow.

turtling = my dumb slang for wanting to or ending up on it's lid...

Situation is as I said above. I have played around with offset bias a bunch an anything more than 1/4" side I have found wants to "turtle" in that type of situation. I like 1/8" as ideal.

[stubs179]

I haven't notice it with this setup. I had a lot of problems with my XR being different widths front and back but on my bully it doesn't really seam to affect it? Not sure why?

4lb 8oz rtr. Man that thing was light!

[Super Fabrication]

Well your not that far off that for now and bullies aren't exactly known for being super light

[slowngreen]

Vid?

[stubs179]

Thanks guys!

I will post vids when they are up.

[stubs179]

As promised, a couple vids....

This was the best comp spot and gates i have ran in Florida to date! Great comp guys.



Finals course. I only needed a +5 or better so the first gate i didn't bother reversing. Finish gate was just gnarly!



There are more in the South Fl section.

[DickyT]

Congrats on the win Stubs! again....

That is awesome. You even swiss cheesed the body to shave weight. The only thing left is to use a clear body to get away from the weight of the paint. Are you going to try to get it any lighter?

That body came with my old XR when i got it. I just put all the holes in it to see how much weight i could get out of it. I lost 1/4oz.

Yes i have a couple things in mind. I don't think i would run it this light at a major comp right now as i am not super confident in it right now. But it does some amazing lines right now. But for a comp rig stability is much more important than specific jaw dropping lines.

I think i can get it down to the low 4lb range. Not into the 3's but 4.25ish?

Oh ya, looks like i might be going bodyless?
