Thanks Jube, I think the springs might be too stiff. I will try Lighter springs. Do you think a change with the droop help?
The jumps are not right. They are small and steep. But thats what there are and I'm happy to have a indoor track close by. The Losi's didnt seem to kick up they were more grounded.
Since you guys seem to post results, My Hyper 9E did take the A-main win in both races held at The Philly Indoor track. This week I was in last on the 1st lap and it was all good by the end. It also won alot of races at Family Hobbies in N.J. So I do love the Hyper. Just trying to get it even better!

I agree. I wasnt over shooting them. They are tricky. Its kicking up on the take off even on the 1st jump. If I stay on the throttle alittle its fine. But then you do over shoot them. Its a double-double-double. I can quad- double out but only 50% of the time. Triple-single-double out 70% of the time but you cant win unless its 100% of the time.
I could be coming into them to hard. But then right after that section there is a table top thats right after the corner going into the corner before the next straight. Something that you can just coast over because its in a very tight section and it kicks up there also.

Russ-
If you can have someone film you racing your Hyper 9E- You can load it up onto you tube and post the link here on this thread. That would be awesome

The Hyper 9E is truly a great buggy
Special Thanks To Ofna(HoBao) for Designing-Creating-Making Available this awesome buggy.
Note: Every person I met that owns the Hyper 9E, and use to race another model 1/8th scale electric- is faster per lap- than any other buggy they have raced(after a short time period- of getting use to the Hyper 9E 1/8th scale buggy). The Hyper 9E consistently takes the racer to another level of racing excellence- which help the RC racer redefine what they understood their racing limits to be. When I switched from the Losi 8ight-E over to the Hyper 9E- my skill level jumped from a last place sportsmen class racer- to a first or second place sportsmen class racer within the very short time period of two weeks after first buying the Hyper 9E. And all this with the exact same tires and electronics in both buggies. Don't get me wrong- the Losi is a great buggy- and is the strongest made buggy I've ever seen- but no matter how many people help me set up my Losi- it was always hard for me to go fast and maintain a consistency of control with the Losi 8ight-E. Whereas with the Hyper 9E- going fast was and is very easy- while feeling 100% in control at all times. It's easy to go fast around any offroad track with the Hyper 9E- and it's with the Hyper 9E buggy- that I first considered- maybe I can become a faster racer than I previously thought was possible. Because the Hyper 9E has redefined my experience of 1/8th scale RC Electric Racing- and made it fun- and very easy to go fast
Thank You Ofna

Has anyone tried the soft blue springs on the 17mm BB shocks? They are the softest springs I could find from Ofna and I was going to throw them on the 7lb h9e setup i'm currently running.
Any feedback on these springs?
I'm currently running the 10 1.1 hole tapered pistions with 30 front and 25 rear AE oil.
