Is it really cold, loose track...

We run high bite with temps at about 60 degrees.

what springs, oil and pistons are you running front and rear?

Now I get why you guys are going to lower oils.

I am also at 40/35 on high bite

I don't think that's really true all over. It really depends on the track you're on. Tighter tracks will demand more braking, otherwise you're just going too slow. These 4x4 trucks already have much more neutral drag than the 2wd's, so that helps not needing to use brakes as much. That coupled with the fact that we can rotate the truck using throttle helps a lot to.

At OCRC, being a hard pack high bite clay indoor with misters, the Tekno SCT410 does a lot better when you enter into the turn a little slow, then power through the turn. Often doing drifts around them. At least this is how the fastest guys run it (both Tekno trucks). I'm slowly learning, it's not as easy to learn power driving around a tack than it is to learn to be smooth. Power driving when learning yields more crashes. The body is sure taking a beating as I learn, but I have yet to snap anything, knock on wood, yet...

I'm going to be moving to the Fioroni Pistions as well and will be trying out SRAMOS' setup, with the exception of one stop softer springs all around and using AE oils close to the Losi oils he is using this chart: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=...59026428,d.cGU

However I'd love to hear from other people running the Fioroni pistons!!!!!

Im very tempted to try these. http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...Set-Kyosho-MP9

I will post setup when I get a chance. Hard packed out door blue grooved track. Finally can say the tekno truck is my favorite. Thanks for making an awesome product Tekno! Keep up the good work!

i don't get a lot of test/tune time. track is too far away. for me, i only get maybe a pack on race day before racing starts. i need to be close when i get there (what "feels" right on bench) and then maybe one or two tweaks before racing starts. i will still give sramos' setup a shot before changing (even though the oil feels too heavy). maybe with the pack these have, i can get away with a lighter spring in the rear if i go down on the oil. i'm just paranoid of the dreaded nose dive if i go too soft on the rear spring.
