Aaron,

how does replacing the O-rings affect handeling? I thought of doing it as an update thing......keeping things fresh.

what tires are you runing & what compound, I'm running with Adam in C-bus. I tried different front tires & never did anything to my set-up & I am now dialed, good balance. Drake said my trucked looked good, "good corner speed". I just need to tame the wheelies down a little, on the back straight & short straights. lol Make sure you have the right tires, before messing with your set-up.

Good call.

yakob - I'll pick his brain when I talk to him.

mafia - O-rings can swell or stick differently, they don't always act the same. Put a shock with old o-rings and one with new ones in it on a shock dyno..

Did you send in your resume yet? NO!

KJ i was running red directionals and red studs.

Any way i think ifigured out my problem the four screws that go through the front pivot block had backed out and allowed the entire front end to swivel a bit in both directions


Aaron i would still be interested to know what drake did to correct the problems he was having.

yakob - He hasn't mentioned anything, I just he just started trying to drive it..haha.

Having those screws loose will certainly make it push.

SoFast - I use the stock Losi o-rings.

Have a question
What would be a good setup for the Hyper 7 Pro with PCR upgrades on it like shock towers. I am new to this and just bought the buggy used. Also what motor would be a good choice.
Thanks for your time.

Orange - I didn't sign up within the first four hours..haha.

I think most of my racing, with the exception of the Mod Nats, is going to be gas racing this year.

Bob Moore - There is a Hyper 7 thread here on RCTech that has a few setups listed on it. Type in Hyper 7 and click search! Your guess as to the actual location of that information is as good as mine..haha.

The O.S. RG is a great motor to start with. I'm using the Sirio Kanai Edition II in my buggy and I LOVE it.

James - That made soda come up my nose!

We'll be there Sunday, are you gonna watch the Enduro in Beaumont Saturday? Tell her I said hi..
