I used to run Spec SCB offroad, got to talking with a few people and built a TC4 for VTA. My 1st raced was at Thunder, Darkside, amongst every other VTA racer there that day, helped me out with setup, SXT, pinions, etc,etc,etc. I blistered a fast lap of the day at a 20.1
( i run low 13s now
), but the atmosphere there at Thunder with all the VTA racers was the best I'd ever experienced. No one said anything negative, only encouraged me to keep it up and thanked me for running with them. I quit offroad that day and haven't put a battery in anything offroad since. If you need anything at all my son and I pit against the wall below the announcer's booth, he runs the blue Sunoco Camaro and I run the white and green Allen Green Camaro. We'll be there sunday and at the ThunderJam also

Run the timing back to 20*, that seems to be the sweet spot for the D3.5s.
