Talking 1st win!!!

just some updates on my mtx3 at the track, i ran 2mm offset in the rear and very little toe adj in the front, riding height was about 3mm, with the stock kit parts.. i need to get a setup board so i can give more acurate setting but it was dialed for the first time , i am a rookie and i took my first 1st place finish today!!!

yes i set the front sway bar parallel to the ground the tightened it down, droped my ride heght, and adj my toe in the front and i was planted running 35s all the way around. also i ran a wider front end than i had ever ran and she was set. i took some tips from a pro driver and my toe was way too wide, this let me make the turns like day and night, couple more races and look out!!!

Sean is sponcered by Mugen, go to him at the track when you have a problem when you are racing there. Sean knows what to do at that track.Mention my name( Paul Rush )

Default gear ratio?

i am running stock gearing in my mtx 3 which is 47/43 to 16/20 and i geuss these are 1.0 gears. i saw a guy at the track who had a bad a$$ motor but also had the 0.8 gears and it screamed!!

it seems as if my car goes though the gears a little slow for me, i race a technical track with at least one good long strecth, what are some suggestions for gearing. i asked the guy but of course i didnt remember it or right it down (in front of him )
