Nope.

I've seen one servo die after installing the Avid rack and it was after a very high speed crash toward the end of the straight. Other parts were broken. Shock tower, front arm, and shock cap.

Damm novice shortcourse drivers!!!

I run the Avid rack in my buggy and the only issue I've encountered has been the caster block flexing enough to allow the kingpin to pop out. It's only happened once after smacking the wall.

In my opinion, next to the right tires, the Avid steering rack is the best tool for dialing in your car.

What foam are you guys running in barcode front tires and what mods are you doing to the foam

AKA red soft. and no mods.

That's because in the 22 you need that to steer!!jk but with alittle drag brake my cars on rails,my brakes are set up like abs brakes,slow it down just enough roll the throttle back on through the corner and set up for the next,on my mt4 radio the only way it shows full throttle on the screen is when my EPA is maxed out to 150,my throttle profile on the hotwire is pretty high in order to give me that smoothness.

what is needed to run the losi springs on the associated shocks

Search it or just scan the last 5 pages.

The 1257 in my buggy now has been around the block since last year when I started this hobby and it has seen plenty of crashes. I ran a glued saver for months, and replaced it with the AVID rack when it came out, and it's still running strong. I think the servo arm or the servo/drag link ballcups would fail first before the 1258/1257 servo gears.

I was told this is why they are running the 2 hole casters, they apparently flex less. Of course, they are a bit more brittle as well I suppose.

Full size packs, slight db. Eyeing a Promatch shorty to see how that setup will feel.

Yes, back at WCRC a couple times a week now.

I thought that everyone was using the rear foams and modifying them. I read no one was using closed cell inserts because they made the tire too stiff

since we are talking about inserts...

aka more forward bite less side, proline more side less forward..

my older proline foams used a while now get really soft so I just fill the rim with some tape...

Here at my track it is kind of preference, honestly I can't tell unless I have 2 of the same tire mounted on each, and i don't....I just stuff my jc stuff with proline, proline tires with proline, losi with aka, proline doesn't fill em...sweep with aka hot bodies with aka

does anybody actually know what each do different? UGH so many stupid tires...

You can get the traxxas slash bb shock package. spring retainer cup and top retainer will work.

John, I'm pretty sure their new packs are ROAR approved (65c now). On another note, I ordered a Worlds car today so I'll be playing with a few different things in the coming weeks. You gonna make it to SDRC tonight?
