Do you even follow racing or been to any big races.
+1.
Those guys whether in teams or individual are so good at setting up there buggies it makes no difference and anyway setup is only a fraction of the overall and its mainly the way they turn the wheel and pull the trigger

Far from a "airplane transmitter". A local racer uses the same radio, it's pretty dialed to be honest, and yes it does feel way different to drive. I'm surprised with our "Video Game Generation" we don't see more of these radios being used.

They do more so in Europe/UK but here in the States we don't

Never said Lutz didn't win or couldn't win! And I kno Ty has won pretty much everything! If you read my post I said "it's gotta be harder on them cause they r on their own" Period...... Last years race or the race before that has nothing to do with the conditions they were facing this year! And MALCNZ being able to cutdown on setup trial n error on the track makes a HUGE difference! That's where teams or others running the same plays a major part! Maybe Lutz wanted to try a bunch of different oils or shock locations etc.......but ran out of time, that's where a team mate can say "I did that already n this was my experience". Trust me team work helps

You will find that most seasoned pros dont stray that much with there starting setups and what may work for 1x driver doesnt neccesarily work for another.

They are also not only part of a team chassis wise but tire, fuel, ect as well. There is information bounced around all the time at races. Ryan has been with Durango and Tamiya before that. Always raced on a smaller team chassis wise. I think he enjoys that challenge.

Thank u Jeff ! All I was trying to say is it's more of a challenge!
Pro or not! I've been the lone racer at tracks (shepherd) (agama) n it's a bit harder when ur the only one!

Nemo Racing is the best thing that has ever happened to Agama in the US, that is why.

I have been avoiding this thread since Saturday because I don't want to know the outcome of Silver State until I see the race. Does anyone know if it's on Youtube? I looked around on there and haven't been able to find it. Sorry if it has been mentioned in previous posts, but I really don't want the ending spoiled. Thanks.
