Hey Paul, Just got back into Xray and am looking for a good base set up for the 009. I am racing on a high bite indoor carpet track in a 17.5 sportsman class. Thanks for your time man.

I would definately look at this set up. their is plenty of room to tune within it depending on how it handles for you. Thanks!

Hey paul,

When you run 1/12 scale and TC at an event, do you have problems transitioning from one class to the other? I tried running WGT and TC this weekend and driving the TC is a nightmare after driving the foam car. Any tips?

I do have a problem with it also, i dont really have ant tips except to try and sneak in a warm up lap and to practice by switching back and forth between cars more. i would say that i favor my TC so i always have a good feel for it, and its the 12th scale which i spend the first 30sec getting used to again every time. I think its all about comfort level and confidence in your ability with each car, so simple practice will help a ton. good luck!

Hi. Im with you, you really cant define it at all. i just figure that 100% pops out all the way almost instantly, and 0% takes a few seconds and only comes out 1/4th of the way or so, thats about as dead as you can get them. Im always pretty close to 0.

Paul, Any chance you going to make it over to MSI to run Mod Touring at the second leg of the Grand Slam Series this weekend? Same format as the Halloween Classic.

Hi Paul,

What servos that are good for TC's would fit the inner mounting holes of the T3'11? (I know I can do a variety of things to make my electronics fit using the outer holes but was interested in the specific answer to this)

Ill be honest here, i always shue goo my servo in the car so im noy sure if their is a specific servo thats ear offset is perfect. it is pretty tight to get the servo in so i could see how it could matter. i dont have a good answer. maybe we could get some help from others.

sorry.
