actually I was wondering about setup and tires. I've been using suburbs and bar codes. They seam to be okay. I've been running 7,10,2 diff oil with Losi 35 frt and Losi 30 rr with 7.75 springs in the front and 8.5 in the rear. Car is always on top of the track and never in the track. Track gets dry and slick for the main and it's all I can do to hang on.

You might want to check on the DB section here but I think the Hybrids from JC do well but some run AKA's a lot also.

Which springs would you choose if you were only able to get one set? I can't make a decision whether I should buy mediums or hards. The tracks I race on are mainly low to medium traction so I bet that mediums should be better but I'm curious what are your thoughts.
Also, which pins are good to have? I've heard that the ones used in central part of drivetrain wear the fastest. So far I have a set (10) of 3x12.8mm.

Thanks. That's what I thought. I need something that will prevent rolling over on those more grippy tracks and still provide good traction. Anyone have tested them in person? They are not cheap to say the least so I want to make sure that it's not a step backwards compared to the stock set.
And which drivetrain pins are worth having as a spare?

Does anyone know which chassis is lighter between the SNR carbon chassis or the bce speed eco chassis? Which one works better?

I need some power system advice. Our tracks e-buggy turnout is getting hit or miss, so I am looking for a power system that would allow long enough run times for 20 minute mains. That would allow me to race with the nitro buggies without doing a battery change mid-heat. I was thinking of going to 5s with a low (12-1400) kv motor. Would a 4000mah 54s pack be enough? It's a fairly large track that I currently run on 6000mah 4s with a 2200kv motor (14t pinion) and get 15 minute run times with good throttle management.

i can get 45 min out of a 5000 mah pack with a 2200kv motor. Too bad i never win cause im going so slow

Hello, anyone here running the thunderpower z3r8 1900kv motor?
Im running it with 13t/46t, turnigy 4500mah 30c 4s lipo and a mamba max pro and the motor gets pretty hot, the weather here in spain is hot like 30Ēc. like 85f.
The motor gets pretty close to the max temp allowed.
If i choose smartsense in the mmp will it run cool than in sensored mode?
Timing set at zero?
Help me guys!!
Sorry about my bad english

Run it in smart sense mode. It will start up smooth using the sensors but then switch to sensorless mode once the motor is turning which is MUCH more efficient.
I have heard of quite a few people complaining of high temps with this motor when trying to run it in a pure sensored mode. From what I understand they have some funky timing built into the sensors which means that even when set at zero the esc doesn't treat it that way.
I cant think of a single reason that you would need to run in pure sensored mode. The smartsense mode is better in every way.
