Run the Maifield nats setup and change:

Front- front on steering rack, one internal .030 limiter in shocks.

Rear- no washers on camber link, black sway bar (.047). If you like a lot of rear traction, use one limiter on rear camber link and use the "C" hole in the hub.


Tires I run are orange barcodes on front and blue barcodes on back. Double dees work pretty good too as well as blue barcodes all the way around.

Thats just what I needed! Thanks!

I actually like my rear to have a little less bite than most... but I'm weird that way. Helps me transition from 8th scale to 10th scale better.

The guys from Jeff told me that John is closing in the near future....I believe he is having a sale on all the store items....Sucks that he can't stay for the guys there....It is really hard for the HS to survive it seems....And Hobby Town at Columbia closed also....

Well I think he WAS liking the new location, but the economy has been rough on the place. His final day for business is November 30th. Stopped taking orders a few weeks ago.

REALLY sucks honestly.... John took such good care of me. I'm also one of those people who prefers to keep my money local.... and now I don't have much of a choice otherwise.

I stop in there a couple times a week, I'll be sure to tell him you said "Hi".

Just because Ken runs a 13.5 in stock does not mean you get to! Stock is 17.5.
