Ran my DE for the first time last night, pretty awesome, tons of steering (on and off throttle) and still planted. Only changes i made so far are the under battery weights and 2 dot in the front. I need more tight turning rotation, might try 3 dot 1 dot and remove the weight.

I'm over the 75t spur and the slipper eliminator is not my favorite but much better. Caved and bought a couple schelle slippers for my de and ce. I have a bunch of 0.3mm shims and curt at schelle sent me 2 bearings with the slippers. Nice guy! In any event using 5 0.3mm shims (1.5mm ttl). Are these all the shims I need internally? I read some used 1.6mm. Also, any shims needed outside the gearbox? Thx - I'm only a few months racing rc, bought a lot of used stuff, and am not very experienced putting stuff together (yet). Thx!

Sugar track set up help
Looking for some set up help. I will be running on a outdoor, large, hard packed dirt track. It's going to be hot and sugared. A very abrasive track. I didn't want to buy all the option parts to turn my Carpet buggy into the dirt edition. Any set up help would be great!!
Thanks

Has anyone had problems with pulling ballstuds out of the rear hubs ? This weekend my son has done 3 . They have just been very minor hits eg 1st corner pileups . Currently using the ones that come standard on the dirt edition . Thinking of going to the alloy versions . The car is run on loose to very loose dirt .

I run the CE on a high bite indoor track and have had great success. I run the gear diff and shocks on the front of the rear arms, but it's really down to what you prefer. There's guys on here that run on a mid to high traction track and much prefer the DE and a ball diff, meanwhile I much prefer my CE with a gear diff, there's no correct answer other than trying stuff for yourself. The one thing I noticed about the XB4 which has carried over to the XB2 is just how easy it is to work on and tune compared to other cars. If you want to try the ball diff and gear diff, you can change it out in a couple minutes and be back on the track testing.
Here's my setup, I might not go directly to it but maybe you can find some ideas to try. The car is pretty good with the stock setup, just has a lot of roll and droop in the front which is easily fixable. I wouldn't try to overcomplicate dialing in the setup before ever running the car, I think the stock setup might surprise you. http://forum.teamxray.com/xform/inde...setup=xb2_2016
