But then again, there's no traffic over there. Most are at rctech

I run the trackstars and they are the best I've had. Even with 2 trackstar o-rings the shocks are smoother than one stocker. Make sure to order the shock snot as well, it's even better than ae's green slime. No leaks and you'll need to rebuild way less often, and they last way longer than stockers.

Comparisons were done with the both trys using AE green slime on both regular and FT shocks.
But with all things, its worth giving a look at making up your own mind.

Been there already though .
Build one of each and slide the piston back & forth with out any oil discover which has the least amount of stick .

If we drove at the same track, I`d still make you take the `Pepsi Challenge`of o-rings.

I would recommend that you pick up the M2C rear toe block. Using the rear toe block setting of 3.5 degrees really helps the truck in the low bite outdoor conditions I run on here.
The RC Shox Center diff also shines in low bite conditions from what I have experienced. Worth the money in my opinion but if you do want to stick with the slipper setup, I would suggest going with whatever is recommended for diff oils stock, I think thats 20 or 30K front, 5K or 7K rear. if you do the center diff, for oils I am really liking 7K front and 5K rear pretty much everywhere. Some even run a square setup of 5K all around.
RC Shox dual stage pistons also work REALLY well on bumpy stuff.
I do have a setup from the conditions I ran on that I liked I can provide you with if that would help. I posted it on here but if you can't find it let me know.
Anyone try this on say carpet and can report back the differences they felt as well as how they liked it?

Why would you do that? Do you usually run your shocks without oil, or is that one of those "team" secrets?
