The new layout is dialed! Feels a lot tighter then the last one....but I love how you can just punch it pretty much everywhere your car isnt in the air

My car seems to push like crazy, where would be the first place to look when the front end pushes on power especially in the turn coming off the straight and going into the first set of doubles. I have betts's set-up.

when you shorten the link do i move it in one hole on the caster block and on the front bulkhead or actually shorten the link and run it on the inside hole of the the casterblock and same on bulkhead or vice versa outside of bulk head and outside of castor block. Ya feel me ? I know what i typed sounds retarded hehe

This is why rob says only hard cased lipo's soft cased runners !!! Not cause he is sponsored/sells peak or orion.......

Its in the roar rules

8.3.2.2.1 Li-Poly battery packs must have a hard, protective case that surrounds the cell(s) in the racing application. The maximum case size shall be as follows:
Length: 139mm +0mm/-3mm
Width: 47mm +0mm/-2mm
Height: 25.1mm +0mm/-3.0mm
The battery pack shall have leads extending from the case for the positive and negative electrical connections using wire of adequate size to handle discharge rates acceptable to racing applications. Alternatively, the case shall have external connection points for these wires clearly marked positive and negative so the user can apply the lead wires. Markings on the case are required stating the rated voltage and capacity of the battery. The Value Added Manufacturers name and/or logo shall be easily readable on the case. Individual cells used in the construction of the battery shall be rated at 3.7 VDC and the pack shall be 2 cells in series.

Like try out one hole on the bulkhead, that usual makes the car collapse a lot more and will gain a lot more steering in. I would leave it out on the castor block cause further out on the block just has better steering response.
