That is how I would describe it, pushing, when I expect it to turn really fast.
Pushing down on it while turning the wheels, digs dirt up.

I checked that and it is not loose. They do move quickly if I put the truck on the ground. I am running the ryan dunford 5/22 setup

This has been there a while, I think it is more obvious now, as I am driving the truck faster and faster.

I haven't, I think I need to drive his truck and see. It could be all in my head, but his truck appears to turn VERY fast.

I'm not sure what setup you have but here's what I would try and not in any order. Try them one at a time they will all add more steering but may have a negative effect that is not wanted.

• Softer front spring and or swaybar
• Stiffer rear spring and or swaybar
• Short Ackerman plate
• Shorter front link and or move it down on the tower
• Shorter rear link
• Move the rear hubs more towards the front
• Move the battery all the way forward
• Lower the front ride height 1-2mm

Tried carpet yesterday. Unless I really slowed down into turns, it rolled. At times my steering was wide and easy to pass(I since locked servo saver and installed 2.0 sway bar).

My Durango friend was killing me. It pissed me off and he knew it.

If possible, can anyone post their setup sheet that works for carpet.

Really appreciate,

I don't race my SCTE on carpet, but here droop is your friend.

I remember having the same sort of issues when I first got into racing TC on carpet. The track owner came over, adjusted my droop setting and my car was money all of a sudden.

Lower your ride height, limit your droop, and do all your braking BEFORE you enter the turn. If your on power at any point of the turn with that much traction, you will push like crazy. Stay off power until your head starts to point in the direction you want and then roll on the throttle instead of stabbing it. Carpet has so much traction that all your weight will shift aft and your front wheels will lose much of its ability to turn the car. If you set up your car loose in the rear, you will be able to slide the rear around (oversteer) with your throttle. Really you will just have to play with your camber links (length) and adjust your roll center (high or low) until you find a setup that fits your driving style.

Have fun!

What is your setup? Most specifically what diff fluids are you running?

Quickest fix before changing too much of your car. Dial out a lot of steering on your radio.

My first attempt at carpet
shock position is 1-outside front and rear
height=18
front camber=1
rear camber=2b
diffs
f=5
c=10
r=3
shocks oil
f=35
r=25
springs
f=purple
r=front silver

might try
black front, silver rear springs
heavier shock oil?
front dif 7?

Any suggestions?

Does any one have any input on the bce chassis for the 2.0 ?

I only had a couple races on my SCTE 2.0 when I put the BCE 2.0 chassis on it but for me it made a big difference in the way the truck handles. Not to mention if you race outdoors that the stock chassis dents very easy and is cheaply made. I do recommend using the short rear brace from the SCTE 1.0 over using the 2.0 rod.

Question I know this is not a scte ? But I don't see a thread for it. The ? is do the watts on a charger decrease the time it takes to charge a lipo want a new charger but trying to find one that doesn't take an hour to charge my maxamps 6500mah I was always under the impression to only charge at 1 amp per 1000mah is this correct I see 10 and 12 amp chargers and 1000watt charges can some one explain was looking at hitec 2x 200 or hypertron duo 180x2

You should post this question in the radio/electronics section. And sorry, I'm going to be an ass here... Use some punctuation.
