Hey can anyone running vta share a setup with me? I'm new to the Xray and would like a good starting point. I'm right at VTA weight (What a pita) but I'm not sure where to start. I've go the kit setup on it now but I'm wondering if there are any opinions on changes to make pre: practice. I'm coming from a TC5 that I had pretty dialed but after driving a friends T3 `12 I fell in love w/ the handling of this thing. Driving a Lamborshini vs. driving a cavalier on the autobahn.

I just signed up on RC Sign Up for the Southern Nats and looking forward to coming down from Indy to race. Does anyone know if there is a "host" hotel yet ? I see that the SleepInn was the host last year.
Thanks..

Does anyone have a nice starting setup for an Xray T2 to run VTA on outdoor tracks?
I'm at the limits of my TC4 and I don't think I can squeak any more speed out of it. I'd like to setup my T2 and compare them but I don't know if the base Xray setup is where I should begin.

Here's a thought:
Post the name of the track and the names of people who you think are cheating and I'll bet that by the end of one week you have most of them waiting for you out side of the track so they can explain to you how they are "cheating". They may choose explain one at a time or all together. All together would be quicker.
After you get out of the hospital you might want to take up collecting Hello Kitty fan swag or something on that level.
Just a note:
If this track you go to is running USVTA rules, then the stators are color coded and the modded rotors have are marked to identify them as well (go to NOVAK's web site and see for yourself) because only NOVAK motors are legal.
Derp.
