Test & Tune
Ty - How did your Super testing session go yesterday? Just curious to see how much fun you were having bashin' around off the trrack. I ran mine our newly paved road as well......IT is ballistik!! Nice having a smooth place to test cars that resembles the track surface.

Has anyone tried 6deg. steering blocks? Also, does the 2-speed tranny fit and is it worth trying it?

Out of the Box
No one here has tried the 2 speed tranny. I had one and gave it to another racer to try and he hasn't yet. I don't believe any of us have tried the 6 degree blocks yet either. This car has shown us, with the exception of the springs and ball diffs, that it has been pretty good out of the box.

i have the two speed on my super and it takes a while to set-up correctly. i set my throttle exponential to -20%, removed the ball from the two speed and placed another black spring (so 2 are in there) in the tunnel, without the ball. cranked it down and backed it out about 1/16th of a turn. from a standstill the super still slams into second in about 15 feet, but on the track it shifts about half down the 110 ft straight. i have to run with the super nitros as i am the only electric super at my track. i run a schulze 18.61 controller and a lehner basic 5300 on 8 cells. it runs very well but the two speed springs lose their tension after about 5-8 runs and she starts to shift earlier and earlier. hope this helps.

Fill the Field
Thanks for the info., it should help allot. That's to bad that you are the only Super Electric there. At the end of our season here, the Supe Electrics out numbered the Super Nitros and it was opposite at the beginning of the Season. Now, looking forward to next year, we have a full field of each that will be showing up. Thanks again!

280mm vs. 300mm
Have any of you tried to run 300mm on a high grip track yet? We have had a pretty good size straight all this past year and most of us ran 280mm because the car seemed to handle allot better than the 300mm. If anyone has any set-up ideas for the 300mm, please let us know - Some of us want to run the Corvette body next year but they are 300mm.
