Hey guys, I saw a few of you guys were asking for my setup from the CRCRC race, so here it is![IMG][/IMG]

Just dropping by to show some pics. Sorry about Crappy phone pics, My barracks room not photo ideal....lol

You are the Man Joe, Thank you very much

Looking for a clean 811e 2.0 cobra for sale.

I am having a bit of an issue with my buggy wandering/spinning out under breaking. This is on a high traction track and the rest of my set up feels pretty good. What can I do to make my buggy track straighter under breaking?

Do you guys generally run the stock kit wing, or something else? I busted up 2 of the kit wings in 3 trips to the track. My first week out I chalked it up to my own bad driving, but now I'm getting around with much less crashing. The second one broke on a fairly light hit and I haven't seen anyone else busting wings like I've been. I picked up a Jconcepts to try out and see if I have any better luck with that. Aside from the wing, the durability has been excellent. Haven't broken anything else at all.

Been having an absolute blast with this buggy, very easy to drive and handles great. I went from barely making it around the track on week 1, to almost able to keep up with the fast guys on week 3.

I think that you might have the rear shocks too stiff, at least from the sounds of it. I would try softening up the dampening, or you could try to put a longer rear link on it to help stabilize it.

I only ever run the kit wing and rarely break them. You can try boiling your wings, and they should last longer.

The JConcepts Punisher wing is just about Bullet proof. You can't hardly break it. Although its not as sexy as the stock Serpent wing.

Thanks Toughbeard, I found them and they are a really big help!!

I broke my stock wing fairly easy. I have used both Proline and JConcepts wings with more success. It took some hard hits to crack my JConcepts wing.
Would I put a softer spring on the rear end or use lighter oil? Or maybe a combination of both?

Use less brakes, problem solved. :-)

Without seeing your whole setup it is really a shot in the dark on any suggestions. I am thinking more rear down travel, maybe the rear is running out of travel.

I was thinking the same thing. Rear end of chassis can't pitch any more forward and the rear tires start to lift and lose traction.

Got my buggy all cleaned up and made a few adjustments. I noticed the front V2 spring rates are about 1 lb/in lighter throughout the range compared to the V1's. I take it these lighter rates are the way to go? I have a pair of blue V2 fronts that I'm thinking of trying out in place of the stock pink V1's.

Speaking of spring rates, anyone have a chart to somewhat cross reference between the v1 and v2 spring rates?

Here you go.
