The TLR Alu ones are now serrated.

I can help
3.0 LRC 2*antisquat .75 hex and make sure you have Alu Bat. mount all the way forward. Then choose a tire and compound.... I have too much steering and take it out with the front tire and compound. Soft front springs help too ( Red)

So something happend on the weekend, this was my first race back this year and even though I had practiced on this track about 3 times so far my car was never like this.
It was for lack of a better work. All over the shop, the tail would not stay planted.
Im using the Frank Root - Standard Setup, with 30 wt front and 25wt rear.
I think where the issue is...I recently put in the AE big bore pistons, I put the 1.6 holes all round
I think that was a bad choice.
Our track is really bumpy and loose with a couple of sets of long doubles, I think the extra pack is causing the buggy to become really unsettled.
Questions is should I change to a different set of AE Big Bore pistons, or go back the the standard Losi 55/54's?
Thoughts?

What's the latest with this? We have a bit of a break for Easter so was about to throw in the 1.6 all round on the buggy and 1.6 and 1.7 on the truck but now nervous. A good driver described my car as mellow and nice to drive and I'm happy with it but I went looking for something extra and now have a bunch of ae pistons waiting to be installed. What do you reckon? I use 54s all round. My buggy is pretty much the Bernardo setup but the truck is my own. Our track is also bumpy, grippy on line and dusty/loamy less grip off line.

Stupid question, does the durango big bores fit the 22 shocks?
