most Rapture parts will be found under caster ebuggy parts as they share parts.. Only the Rapture dedicated parts are listed in the Rapture parts list..

well poop, this is going to take awhile now as after I swapped the old Rapture chassis for a updated one now I have decided to take it all apart again to swap it for my lighten ebuggy chassis as my ebuggy doesn't need the lightened chassis as much as the SCT..

Those setups look good Chuck. I may have to try them out and tweak a bit for my tracks since I'm running outdoors right now. My current setup is a sort of mashup of the aggressive and easy to drive setups but I think my diffs are just all wrong. With my center diff in particular, I think I juxtaposed the amounts of 10k and 5k oil in my mix to get 7k since my local shops were out. Want to try 5k in it and see how it goes. In my rear I ended up trying 4k but I think to combo of that and the thick center left me fighting some nasty off power oversteer and attempts at spinning out under initial throttle.

Despite some electrical gremlins and some tuning issues on my part, I still managed to take a 7th place overall in my 1st race with the truck. And lets just say it was realized that you can't push a Rapture around on the track, they just don't budge.

I think I may be on to a tuning profile for esc's to run single shorty packs and run for a 7 minute main. I'm thinking it will work better on indoors tracks as it lacks some punch and grunt for clearing jumps on larger outdoor tracks. Have it pretty much figured out on a Mamba Max Pro and currently tweaking some settings in Hotwire for Tekin RX8.
