Exactly how I'd describe my experience with it. I run 30k in the front diff, 7k in the rear, and rcshox garodiscs for the remaining 2 slipper pads.

If you want more speed, pick up the HW 3656sd 4700, that motor is as fast as you could need. $90 and your done.

Give us the website link so we can check it out.

Got videos of your run?

How is that Brian Kinwald video going? I am assuming you are about done with it now?

Not quite as much traction , kinda dusty , wet clay ...

Maybe someone can repost the question then. It would be nice to know what track this is he is referring to. A setup he has for it can be helpful for those who are soldiering on with the VTS slipper setup.

I am curious though if he received his aftermarket Hot Racing / Toads RC rear hubs that he purchase and used them as well. As he stated in the past, they apparently will offer a performance advantage over his stock AE rear hub.

I'm sorry Cain but I just don't get why you even care about this truck. The best tuning advise I can give to anyone in this thread is to learn to tune your truck on your own, there are just to many variables to offer any real solid tuning advise over the internet especially for this truck and that's why there is so many I'm right and your wrong arguments in this thread. Once you get this truck figured out it is a true joy to play with. Fast fast fast....

Yup, I missed it, figured it would be in the actual body of your post, my mistake. I forgot to wake n bake this morning ... you know what I mean ...

here is the website for everyone:

http://mikesrcworld.com/

nice looking track:

+ YouTube Video
ERROR: If you can see this, then YouTube is down or you don't have Flash installed.


So how did you finish WC and what were the top three finisher vehicle types for 4x4 SCT class?

Interesting you still have the +8mm mod on there since when I asked you about it you said it takes away traction. Hopefully it didn't cause you any issues.

I get a kick out of this idiot. Somebody posts about actually trying the rcshox c-diff and had improved performance over the stock unit. Another person asks about the Exotek locked front clutch hub and a few people who use it answer how they liked it. Then, out of nowhere WC has to make a post to stroke his overinflated ego, and end his post with the above quote. I guess if you don't hang out with, race with, and play kissy kissy with "the team" then you're experiences and opinions don't mean crap.
Informative or argumentative someone asked of his post. I think anyone who's had the displeasure of seeing his posts over the years knows the answer to that. I just like his method of adding fuel to the fire not being as direct as others, so some may feel sorry for him and assume everyone is just ganging up on him.
Point being, anybody who's ran this vehicle whether stock or upgraded, even once, has a right to have an opinion and share it with others. If your goal is to try to label anyone as "not being real", or their opinions not having as much merit as your's (for any reason), and trying to discredit any and every post that discusses any add on for this truck that isn't packaged with a AE label, that's a total chump move. If you, WC, are the only one worthy of having an opinion you should start your own website where you can pat yourself on the back for your one or two other members, if you're lucky to have that many.
