The AE ballast is only 20g.if your temps are 140 after 5 min then leave it as is or even gear up a tooth or 2. What gears are you running. My 8.5 liked 21/84-22/84.
I don't know where I got 3oz from for the ballast. Is about .6oz. I will add another 2.5 oz as you suggest! Thx always. |

Here is my setup. http://www.rcshortcourse.com/forum/t...tml#post255397
Ohh, and one other thing, what brand aluminum rear hubs are you using? Racer's Edge, Factory Team AE? |
Anyone running the STRC "BIG BONES"?
Any advantages/disadvantages? |

I just took a look at your setup sheet, and it looks like a real promising setup for my local track. I just bookmarked it in my "SC10 Setup Sheets" folder, and plan to try out the setup on Tuesday at my local track. I won't be able to match it identically, as I don't have the Avid BB spring sets yet, but I'll match everything I can. Thanks for taking the time to post it! And don't worry, if it ends up working perfect and everyone is trying to sneak a peak at my setup... I'll give you credit for it :D

Racer's Edge, Factory Team AE? http://i991.photobucket.com/albums/a...o/63fd8dba.jpg Edit: Just busted out the calipers and the tires are actually 1.81 wide vs 1.70 for the Sniper. The pins are the same size, but their is one extra row of lugs sort of. Every other row has 5 pins, vs the Sniper has 4 pins in every row. So that .11 is made up of the one extra row and the center section is .315 vs .280. These are gonna be perfect for my local tracks. Maybe a Tazer in the rear and Sniper up front. Yeah buddy! Love new racing tires that improve on an already great tire. I will post some feedback asap! http://i991.photobucket.com/albums/a...o/6c98d01f.jpg Mounted Sniper on the left, unmounted Tazer on the right. Very subtle, but just a little improvement without ruining a great design. |

How do you set the front tow when the wheels are never at the same angle? Too much play going on.

I added the following:
- 0.5 oz. FT Ballast between trans and hinge pin brace - 2.5 oz. in front of the hinge pin brace - 0.5 oz. next to receiver (ballast for ESC) - 0.5 oz. on the front top plate centered. - Battery mid tray I am running a 7.5t with tons of speed and this weight addition plants the truck well and provides good rear traction. |

First make sure your links are the same length. Then I try to work the suspension a few times and drop it from about 8 inches. where it settles is pretty close to where it runs. Adjust as needed then repeat till you have it where you want it.(half turn each side trying to keep both links equal) then make sure your trim is straight on your radio.

I know its been brought up on here before, but jeez the jconcepts blue hex adapters are horrible. Just went to install and stripped one front and one rear, the other two went on ok. What the heck. Avid here I come

Not legal for roar races? Hadn't heard this but then again I do not race in anything official. If you are just doing club races, I would recommend it for the money. I bought one and have been running it in my open class stadium truck with no issues. Plenty of power. Plus its made by castle and can be hooked up to the castle link if you have one
I should of said not legal for Pro2 at my local. |

Well before I knock jconcepts too much, I did complain through email and they are sending me new front and back so at least they were nice enough to do that

Yep, they will take care of you. BUT: the replacement hubs will still have the short screws. Get some M2x6 screws or you will strip them again.
