Ran 25+ packs on it today(6-8 minutes each)...I am SOO comfortable with this car. I can drive it as hard as I want and it just stays glued to the track. Took some hard tumbles, and didn't break anything. Until I snagged a pipe at full wood on the straight. Broke the inner hing pin brace. But nothing else. Any other car would have been toast.
Handling- Awesome
Durability- Awesome
Ease to get out the rear hing pin brace- ...eek haha
Painting the stock body-...eeeeek! hahaha
But honestly I think the design is great. The best on the market I think. I will sacrifice an extra 10 minutes to work on the rear, to get the performance gain of this car.
At my local track with my previous car, I could pull 19.5-20 second laps consistently. With the Dingo I'm pulling 18-19.5 second laps. And that was with no set up changes.
My thoughts as of now... A+

4 hole pistons give way to much "pack" ( I have tried for a few months )
I know the top drivers like jorn and hupo run 4 hole pistons, but the tracks that they run on are mostly have way bette maintained and are smooth.
I love :
6 hole piston all around 1.3mm
25 caster,
3,5 rear toe in
1,5 antisquat
15g extra weight in front
shorty in the back
25wt rear
35wt front
dark green springs rear
losi silver spring front
my track is hardpacked dirt, no real big jumps, low/mid grip, rutted/dusty

cant beleive that many folks keep on running 4 hole pistons unless the track is smooth.

Anyone try these pistons?
http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...stons-4-6x12mm
If so, are the 1.2 size a good place to start if only buying only one set? 1.1 and 1.3 are also available. Small technical track, a bit bumpy, mostly small jumps.
Thanks again,

Thanks Jonny5,
As it turns out I have a set of the 4 hole (1.2 and 1.3) on order from Nick; not sure how long it will take to receive them. After doing a bit more research I'm thinking the 6 hole style may suite my track better.
