My winning streak and parts breakage streak ended ubruptly also this past weekend
A T3 truck hit me head on when it jumped the track during practice and stopped us both in our tracks. It drove off but my car lay motionless. The battery unplugged, the rear diff outdrive snapped and a rear arm snapped (strange for a head on crash). I replaced some parts but the car still has a major tweak or something- it's just not the same right now. Looks like I'll be tearing the whole car down and going over the car with a magnifying glass
In my absence Randman stepped up to the plate and represented the Cuda very well- good job. I guess you got the loose rear figured out. Btw- I measure my droop setting from the outermost part of the arm itself so that means the rear is set at 7.5mm.

Million dollar question
So.... What was an off-road stadium truck doing on a parking lot track other than going fishing?

Hey guys, I am thinking of getting a cuda, so I have been reading here, but talking about novice!!!! We had a guy get out his Tmaxx in the practice session betweem the qualifiers and the mains, and he sat there and just ran across dividers, and all other things, and people were practicing and running their cars, the hobby shop owner was grabbing lunch or somthing so he didnt see all this.
Jeesh, and the worst part is this guy doesnt even own an on road car of ANY sort, and he had his whole pits set up.
