Since the LRC brace says +1 toe it is simply .5 less than the eb48 +1.5 brace correct? So I just subtract -.5 from the toe on the lrc conversion chart that is on the eb48 forums

On the LRC brace center pill is 3* toe, outer pill is 4.

Are u running a fan? Any timing? Taking temps after a heat or after long practice? Temp of motor is reasonable, ESC is high though. Wheel spin is a major contributing factor as well.
So remove timing, install fan and make sure it is spinning and pointing the correct way, reduce wheel spin by finger or decreasing current limiter and check after a 5 min heat and reply. My temps are ESC 140, motor 150-155 after 5 min but I have had much higher. Your pinion sounds pretty close

This was awesome advice, thanks! It wasn't working in iBooks, but works perfectly in the free Adobe Reader app for iOS.

Happy to help. I'm mediocre with RC vehicles (but learning) but an expert with computers.

Need some help on spring choice I've looked over the first page on rates and all that very helpful BTW!! I see everyone saying get stiffer springs to fix the bucking issue but not sure what I should get. I'm running the rear yellow tekno springs now. Was gonna go red but don't see them on tower hobbies. Any help would be appreciated on what to get.

A little bit of rebound in the front helped me. For some people the bucking issue seems to be partly caused because the front of the truck can't keep up with the rear end in terms of rebound, and pack.

Question for those with the part. Does the LCG motor mount insert slam the motor against the chassis or is there still a little bit of room? I want to know because I have a 3656SD motor, the fins on the can make it a hair wider then 36mm diameter. But the part says 36mm only. I really wanted to give it a try and see how it does for 20 bucks...

I run the LCG motor mount with the 3656SD motor and it definitely fits. the amount of clearance depends on the size of the pinion (larger pinion forces motor further away and up the mount), but i am able to run a 13T (or larger pinions) and still have clearance.

Worth the $20 in my opinion. Also, at least for me, the LCG mount slide in and out much easier than the stock one which i needed to pry even after the two screws were removed.

That's great news for me, Sounds like I'm totally safe. I run the 4000kv with a 17t pinion.
Managed to eak out a 33.05second (almost a record for the SC class at this track) lap at the local outdoor track this past weekend and was trying to find ways to stabilize the truck a bit more in the corners . I ordered the mount along with lightened cups/outdrives and some different pistons. (8x1.3). Need to fix my nose dives on the big double table top, it's the only jump I nose on but it's annoying when it happens. I have to hit that jump at a super specific speed and angle to go straight. I heard it's solved with stiffer rear springs, but the truck came with yellows, which should be stiff enough.

Actually the Tekno Red (2.93) spring for the rear or any other springs at the 2.9 spring rate seem to help a lot. I run the Kyo Yellow spring (2.95) since when I bought them a while back the reds where out of stock.

The Kyosho yellow spring is great on the SCT410. I own way too many springs and keep falling back to these with Orange in the front.

Depending on the track, for indoors medium-high bite running 27.5wt Losi oil in rear and this past weekend at a big 1/8 track that was rough, I was running 30wt Losi in the rear, but I'm also running the 8x1.3 pistons as well.

@Kuya_Kimo I also have a set of the Kyo Orange springs for the Front and like them as well. For the most parts I've been using the Kyo Orange fronts or the HB Gray Fronts
