Our oval has actually just moved, and the straights will be about 15'ish longer each side. It will be interesting because she will require gear changes in everything.
I am intrigued by your 2wd setup as well, my daughters want to race an indoor series this fall and there is no 4x4 class just a Pro 2 (unlimited motor). I like the idea of running different toe per side to help on the high bank, high grip indoor track.
Thank you.
First post, hooray!

And this is a power HD servo after 5 hours of use

I run battery back in everything. I've never tried it forward though.

I'm running my truck on an indoor tight medium grip with some dust on it as SCT is next to the last race of the round. I have all of the option parts suggested on the front page, I'm just not sure on the diff oils, it seems stock takes a bit to spool up and get the truck going. I don't have many oils as all of my 10th scale cars are TLR so all ball diffs and TLR oil. I did change the pistons to the 8x1.4 conical cause I like the way conical pistons work, and use TLR 35 F 30 R. I need to get the truck to get power to the wheels much faster then it is now. Suggestions would be helpful. Other then that and the nose dive issues I am having (just got to baby the throttle to correct in the air) the truck was very drivable, and managed 3rd place my first race with it against guys who have had the truck for over a year.

I would take a look at the recommended indoor setup on teknorc.com for overall setup to start.
I'm usually in the mid 20's outdoors (22-23), and get pretty low indoors.

I finally bought the kit yesterday, it's on backorder from Amain. Good thing is I had a $50 off when you spend over $400 VIP voucher, so I got a stainless screw set for it aswell, taking it to just over $400. What's even better is that $50 USD is about $67 Australian $$
In a separate order I also got
- Proline pre-painted flotek body
- Traxxas Slash BF Goodrich wheels, the silver ones
- Hobbywing Max10 sc 120amp / 3660SL G2 4000kv motor combo
- All 4 aluminum suspension hangers
- Aluminum split centre diff mounts
- Aluminum shock caps, and pre-load
I've read about the Hobbywing 3660 G2 can splitting, but they were old posts, and I'm sure Hobbywing has fixed the problem. Probably just a bad batch
Can't wait to build the kit, it looks awesome

You want 0 offset, so Losi scte/Tekno sct410

Oh really ?? too late now, they've been sent from Amain, and of course I'm in Australia. Thanks for the heads up, I obviously didn't do my research properly

So the offset is wrong, but do they fit ?? I'm only a basher, I'm assuming they will stick out from the body then ??
#5216
those wheels will stick out too far. the concepts hazard +3 offset fit perfect...even though not technically roar legal
#5217
Ok, I should of gone for the Proline Trenchers like I was going to, just trying to save some $$$

Question for you guys. My buddy has a Losi 8ight-E and 8ight-N, also a SCTe.
Every week when we race has dnf's because some breaks. weather it be something diff related, esc, motor, servo, etc...
Lately I haven't been able to run much and whenever I comment on him breaking stuff he just says its because he actually runs his stuff.
Now I know my Tekno SCT410.3and EB/NB 48.3 have both help up very good. I just now had my first real break (snapped a dogbone and outdrive is pretty mangled). But my diffs are bulletproof, a-arms are still good.... my Tekin esc/motor's feel like day 1, and my mks servo's are amazing...
Now he buys chinese electronics for the most part and they break constantly....
I was wondering how long do most of you think common parts like A-arms, diffs, shocks, etc should last. He has blown through diffs and pinions like candy... I feel like hes doing something wrong, but he won't admit it. I know that AE parts feel cheap and thin compared to my Tekno, and I feel like TLR is still decent quality, but he is replacing stuff on a weekly basis for the most part.
So if I could just get some basic wear and tear timeframes for common parts id appreciate it so I can talk to him about it. How many races would you say you get out of certain parts?

I usually only break arms and bend hinge pins on the hardest shots to front end, like trying to triple a huge jump and lawn darting. Tekno keeps going though, just change out bent pins maybe damaged arm, sometimes pins are bent and arms are ok.
My diffs and shocks and what not never miss a beat
My buddy finally gave up on his AE stuff, and went Tekno. He was breaking and DNF'ing every race. And he is usually a top 3 finisher. Last Saturday was the last straw. He punted his AE across the lot after the latest DNF.
I LOL'd and said come join the Dark Side, so he ordered a Tekno

Ok I ordered a set of Proline ProTrac F-11 beadlock wheels (zero offset) ST Racing black aluminum beadlocks to replace the stock metal red ones, and some Trenchers. That should do the trick
