or you can just do the hex conversion and be done with it

That's an expensive solution if you have many hundreds invested in tires mounted on standard pin wheels...

If you've bought your first SCT and it happens to be the SC10FT, with only an extra set of wheels, worth getting the Hex upgrades?

Sounds like it. I've got one rim that is nearly stripped out. It also makes it more fool proof to install the tires on the car. And rims/tires for these things aren't cheap like a buggy! :eek:

I run the protrac kit on mine and it's very nice that I can rotate my tires

Sorry, newbie here. can someone please guide me to a link for the exact parts I need to do the conversion so I can look around locally for the parts.

i run on a high bite wett clay track,i got a pretty decent setup on it since ive only driven it once so far,just curious for high bite clay,if i run shorter camber links it will make the truck more twitchy correct?right now i have it set up right now like this,red springs in the front#2pistons and 32.5 oil and rear grey springs,30wt and #2 pistons,3 limiters in front and 2 in the rear.thinking about adding some more on the front end and maybe 1 more in the rear.

mxracer458 08-01-2011 07:48 PM

Also what's the difference between the a/b blocks on the rear ft hubs

ok first off i just wanna say hi to all the sc10 peeps in here.;)
i just started runing short course period...i bought a RTR truck for really cheap and upgraded it :D...i put in the castle SCT 1410 3800kv brushless system in it...but i am running a 87t spur and a 20t pinion..is this ok?


My setup is as follows:
FRONT
-1 degree camber
red springs 35wt
middle on tower
inner on arms
arms level
REAR
-1 degree camber
green springs 40wt
inner on tower
inner on arms
bones level
also have the STRC 1degree aluminum rear hubs

it seems to be a great setup...but was just wondering what you guys think:D
i run on dusty outdoor bluegroove tracks that get watered
thanks in advance guys

Thanks mate, would you say its a worthwhile upgrade?

I will probably build the kit with the pin style for now and run the wheels I have, if for some reason I need to change to a new wheel then I will probably go for the upgrade.

I would do it,I run on high bite clay,nice option to rotate tires to make them last
