bored? fine tune your driving now that you got the set up down.. lol i have had the same one for 4 and half years and always love running it. new set up trick for rear traction is run the 2mm spacer inside the rear hub and dremel off about 2 to 3mm of out drive so the drive bone doesnt bind up. that should take care of at least 2hrs of boredom.

I have one too over there, doesn't seem like any racers are looking for these. I only get trade offers for junk or ridiculous low ballers. Its one of the most consistent, easy to drive 2wd sc trucks on the track yet nobody wants them.

^^^ I agree! Does anyone have any .5 degree rear aluminum hubs that they want to part with?

Well I ran my Ultima SC this past weekend and man is this truck is so well balanced. I could not believe how much better it handled then my SC10, Blitz or Slash LCG. Its true I upgraded some things on the truck since its not the SC-R. I replaced the brushed set up with a brushless and the servo with a high torque high speed Traxxas waterproof servo and the stock shocks to velvet shocks. I love how well this truck handles. I always loved Kyosho. I used to have a Kyosho Pro-XRT stadium truck ( I still have it). But ever since my first Kyosho I loved how well they're RC handled and the Ultima SC did not disappoint me.

The reason people kinda shy away from these trucks is cause the rear end is a little fragile. As I found out the hard way and plus lots of hobby shops don't carry parts for them at least mine doesn't if something breaks I have to go online to get parts and that's ok with me since I have another week till next race.

I run the rear aluminum hangers and standard t plates and have had zero issues. What have you found to be fragile?

Yep. Get the aluminum narrow and never look back. They are a must.

Are these rear hubs the same as in rear toe? The kyosho V2 rear hubs which say there 5 deg and the rear hubs that say there 1deg which is the strc rear hub.
