I keep all my rc's on either stands, blocks of wood, or old MT tires to keep the rc from resting on its tires.

ALUM SERVO HORN
If you guys plan to replace your stock servo horn with an aftermarket alum servo one...you'll need to dremel it to the same height of the stock one. If you don't it will not clear the bottom part of the belt cover.
I purchased this one from OFNA for my kit, it lined up perfectly with the stock servo horn: http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...rion-Savox-ACE ..... but had to use the lower hole and dremeled the top to the same height of the stock servo.

thank you for all tire comments.
it was true that i store all my cars on the floor... will not do that anymore
.
however, i tried with different tires that were laid flat but it doing the same thing...i am trying to get in to the racing and track stuff next month. bing more detail i guess...if not the tires then what could it be?...i hope its not the diffs, it takes time to access them. truck runs fine on the floor. thanks RC

nice gains!! im headed to the tenth scale nats in a few weeks and since i dont have any indoor clay experience this is good info! on my truck i drilled the front compression piston out to 1.2mm (from 1.1) and went to 30wt and it feels good, i think 27.5 may be better though! where do you have your shocks mounted? stick or saddles? i also like the feeling of the lighter saddles compared the tall heavy ones, just seemed to have too much weight on the front.

I use the center mounts on the towers and the front lower outside mount. Rear lower inside mount. Yellow front springs, blue rear. 2.5mm front sway and 2mm rear. 24mm ride height front and rear. I modded the chassis to run stick packs in the middle. Didn't have to add any weight to balance were I want it.

away. You ever watched a truggy on the starter box warming up with unbalanced tires &
wheels? Holy crap the whole truck shakes like crazy. I bet it doesn't shake when you run it
around on the ground does it? I wouldn't worry to much about it. Just my oppinion.

Could be too much drag brake, could be a loose clicker up front. Does it happen in a straight line or when entering a corner?

Yes it will happen in a straight line. I may have a binding issue but not sure. I plan to take the truck apart and check it over. Should it roll real free? Im not really sure about belt drive systems. I think I have 20000 in the front and rear is stock (diffs) and the clicker is tightened for full 4wd. Thanks

I have been running mine inside on asphalt with wooden jumps and I run 1000,000 in the front and 30,000 rear with no spin-outs under braking. Check you wheel hexes to make sure they don't bind, mine have been fine for months but they are starting to rub now, so I ordered the aluminum ones.
