Nice work. Those pin tyres seem to defy gravity sometimes. Hopefully we get sunshine this weekend.

The pin tires are probably helping...but your rig is what seems to defy gravity! Nice driving!

Congratulations great driving

one suggestion, reverse the servo gets the larger arm, makes less effort in the servo

Most of us run the servo flipped the other way to reduce hang ups...the servo still has plenty of power.

Nice video. Great driving!

Do you mind sharing your foam setup for your pins?

personally think it is better... but if it works well and does not heat the servo

Nice driving.
You've got me seriously considering some knuckle weights.

As ittybitty said, seems to reduce hang ups when flipped, not totally but it definitely helps in situations!!

Running the losi boss claws with 5.5 foams tuned up and cut, 1" slw on front and .7 slw on rear, vented the rear with a 1/8 hole but seems very little advantage if any against running un vented rears with the 5.5 set up so far!!

Thanks for the comments!!!
