thed3 are great motors man, they run cool and have great power. i just recently got the d3.5 17.5, i havent ran it yet but if is performs like the d3 or revtech then i am very pleased with it. u cant beat there reliability and performance man. u cnt go wrong with the trinity motor.

lmao.....

can anyone explain how the low roll and high roll aluminum upgrades effect the overall driving of the 22?

thanks

Whats a good setup for a 13.5 with boost for a loamy track.

I've been into RC for a couple of years now and just got into 2wd buggy with my Losi 22 a few months ago. What are the benefits of a shorter chassis?

quicker reaction to steering inputs and more sensitive and harder to drive, longer is stable and slower reaction to steering inputs.

Greatly tightens the turning radius. Makes the car more responsive. Setup books say it lessons the stability of the car, however with the 22 and the -5mm chassis it is still very stable. The stock 22 only seems to handle great on high bite tracks, the shorter chassis makes it better on the looser surfaces to.

Deffinetly worth looking into if you have tried everything and still want more.

For the record the -5mm chassis makes the 22 the same length as the b4.1 with the +8 chassis.

Long track? Admittedly I am not very familiar with timing advance setups but the ones I have driven typically have a "hit" in their power band. If the loamy track isn't higher grip that could make it a handful to drive. Unless the track has long straights that require really high speeds it might be better to aim for a smooth throttle curve so you can control wheelspin. If it's high grip, crank up the timing and throw some roost. Loamy off road is where it's at.

Are you running on a loamy track?

Rarely. Besides the brand new layouts that haven't grooved yet, the worst I run on is hard pack with a light dust layer.

I a pretty lucky and all the tracks I drive on have great bite. I pay for it in tires tho.

I haven't found any conditions were I feel the stock chassis was better.

It isn't particularly the throttle curve, as the 'hit' you're referring to, is more than likely the 'start and end' RPMs they have their timing advance set at... OR, if they're running any Turbo Boost, they can also have their delay and/or turbo ramp, just set absolutely insane (possibly to fit their driving style)... So, yeah... Not all timing advance setups, are created equally

Probably all true.
