LRP's sxx V2 does profiles for the timing, currently set it up at +4 on the boost timing, which is+1 on the stock setting. Is the 10.5 a good motor, power wise for it?

It's a great motor.

The thing is, you always wanna start with minimal boost and adjust your gearing first and see if you can get the truck where you want it.

Boost and timing = higher temps which just isn't the best thing to do in the long run.

Just do whatever combination of gearing/boost/timing that gives you the performance you want at the lowest temps. Your truck might be fast as heck but if you're coming off at +200 degrees after a 5 min heat it's not goint to be fast for very long.

For my layout I actually have 6 limiters up front and 1 in rear, with 40 wt ft and 30 rear, 2 piston in all shocks. The limiters will allow the front to b more repsnosive and not dump over near as much. 25 drag may b a little too much and making u spin out. It acts like slaming on ur brakes and whipping the tail around. To b honest with 4 deg toe u shouldn't have a traction prob what so ever. Are u running the tires of choice of your track? I would thiink that you have a push prob if anything man. You should still b able to handle jumps just fine man. Add neg camber of 1deg on all wheels and ride height to start with is bone level in the rear and arms level up front is a starting point. I still run ae springs on me sc10 they seem more consistent than losi bb to me, I'm blue front and green rears just for a lil added traction and take away a little steering cause my truck steers from hell lol

Does anyone use the LRP SXX Stock Spec v.2 ESC in your SC10? If so, are you happy with it?

I am currently using one in my VTA car and was hoping I could switch it back and forth with my SC10 but the thing seems to have no braking. I've been able to take my SC10 with its stock brushless system to the track once and I really use the brake.

If I use the sxx, would I need to find some kind of set-up that doesn't need any brake to get around the track?

I'm using the TC version and it's supposed to have brakes on it and no reverse, but I've noticed that the brakes are like anti-locks. They do slow it down just a dead stop right away.

I was thinking the 7 limiters up front was alot and didnt know if the gray rear and the red front were common since those were the only 2 it came with. I will have to post up pics latter i think it will become my new favorite over my my b4.1 since that one was a rtr built to world specs. Though these tires are a definitely a no go.

What track do you run at? Do you have lead weights?

I have a Race Spec SC10 and am looking to replace the electronics, and add a few mods. I have already gone to the threaded shocks and the ball diff, is there any recommendations that are needed?

Also I have received some help from the local guys and took some RC fuel tubing and used it for bump stops or shock limiters, was this a smart move or a WTF idea?
