Huh? No you can use the garodiscs on both the inside and outside with the vts setup. As shown in the pic below the garodisc pads are the same as the AE pads for the VTS.

The garodiscs that I have look like the one inside the spur pictured.. Just like the original AE slipper pads. So will I need to buy the new one's for the VTS system?

I don't know why I have the worst fookin luck..

My RX8 went today. Glad I took it to the practice track instead of tried to race. Truck has done nothing but let me down ever since I bought it. I swear to f'n christ i'm over this truck.

One thing for sure, the stock pistons worked better than the 2ways. At least I verified that before esc took a s**t.

Interesting, that when i first built the truck for you they were better than stock and then now they are not all of a sudden? Keep in mind that that was almost a year ago and i dont think that you even had V2's right? pistons do wear out they are plastic disc' that rub against aluminum 1000's of times on a race day.

To each his own, I Dont pay anyone to run them Pros dont usually run things that make them slower! But they do what they are suppose to do and that is give you faster rebound. True that on smooth tracks they are not as advantageous as on a rough track but to make a statement that they are hype is bold. which ones have you tried?


With that being said i am working on some pretty trick single stage pistons that are being tested on 1/8 scale buggies as we speak and the results are promising so far. They dont work as well on the rough tracks but are really good on the smoother higher bite tracks.
