I won both heats and tq'd. I ran a 18.2 second lap and backed it with 2-18.4 second laps!
Main sukedgot punted in turn 1, came back up to second and was battling with lance then he punted me into the wheel barrow. Knocked my fan off the esc, 4 laps lated I thermaled in 3rd place with 5 laps togo!
Buts this truck is dialed.
You wanna hit Hemet friday night??

nose diving

Ive been trying to keep up with this thread but its kinda hard when theres 3 pages added a day. Im sure it been asked or discussed already. How do you keep these trucks from nose diving when jumping. I feel like its just waiting to break something every time it jumps.

Im sure getting silver in the rear will help too, but try moving the battery to the back with the spacers on it and changing shock weights and positions

Check the suspension for binding then. If you are having issues with nose diving with the stock settup, and all the suspension is moving freely, then it's definitely driving error. The stock settup flys fantastic.

Of course if the jumps are built wrong, no truck will fly level over them. On a properly built track, it should have no issues.
