So I hear there is a WGT-R car on the horizon, any truth to that?
Might explain why Roche USA hasn't had P-10 200mm in stock.

If it could be converted back to foam tires, that would be pretty cool!

Anyone with a P10 EVO who modified it to run 2S shorty batteries? Parts, setup changes?

It's been out for a little while now (got mine already!), but haven't seen the info on this forum yet, so...

Still needs minor work to make it run the taller rubber tires. Two of them at our track and they work very well. I should know as I chase one of them every week.

Thankfully it's only a few shims front and rear. No more than 2mm worth additional

I use .018" fronts with 1.25mm droop and 2* camber with 0* blocks with big shim back.
Stock side springs just touching with 5K grease in tubes. I changed center shock to an oval one I use, not sure of spring weight.. 2mm of droop.
For the rear I'm at 189mm wide, I did machine the hubs to fit the GTR rim better, the hubs are bigger diameter. While I was doing that I took 1mm off the face of the hubs to narrow the rear.
Battery full back and 2oz's of lead in the back.

but as many of you know -- wayne is a mad man . i mean that in the best way possible.

my car is box stock + a few shims / front spring change. i too went to AE 0.018 front. i'll have to take a pic of the car. ran it friday night for some can-am rc series motor testing -- but i've forgotten the setup by now.

one thing to by the on the look out for is the need to add large amounts of weight.
also -- to run a servo saver!

I did a little of the assembly work on Wayne's latest for him while killing some time. Very nice car. I really like the steering system.

Here's another WGTR from our local track NORCAR.. "ROBERTO'S RIDE"

Also a note on Wayne's ride. His servo is a larger one. Bigger than the mount can handle. Not because he needed it but because he had it. Attached by Shoe-Goo or servo tape. LOL
That's the one I chase.
