Depends on the condition of your belts.

The belts and pulleys are brand new- never run.

A safe place to start is to put the markings at 12 o'clock. It's a good starting point and the belts aren't too tight or too loose.

Anyone try out the adjustible chasis stiffiners for the optional rear deck etc. I am going to be running carpet rubber with my TC and have the kit yet haven't ran them yet. I know on a foam setup stiff is good but with rubber tires is everyone running a high traction asphalt setup?

Default Loose off power !!

Need a little direction here.

I am running the Cyclone Black, I am running 4 degrees droop fr and rear. When off power (no brake) the rear breaks loose. I tried adding more droop in the front same issue.... ANY IDEAS?

"Trick": What set up are you running? What tires?
