|  question bout reverse hey guys just ran into this tonite crawling by myself but wanted to ask about reversing. now i know reverse is a penalty but what if you use reverse to untweak a torqued suspension and the vehicle adjusts but never actually moves backwards? i came across this today testing some changes to my droop setup and i have tons of torque twist still and when id get a wheel up in the air id simply reverse and drop the wheel but never actually back up just un torque would this still be a penalty? |

| A reverse is a reverse. If your wheels go in reverse at all that is a point. |

I've been caught twisted, but my JR 8711 servo will wiggle the steering and cause things to settle if I'm up in the bind. I agree...reverse is 1 wheel noticably moving backward as per the rules. | |

The tires must rotate in the reverse direction for it to be a reverse.  | |
