Plastic I believe, my car doesn't push anymore though:D I actually did my first 15 lap run on the current layout

Sauce
 
Just curios what is everyone's favorite sauce.
At my local track you never what the tractions is going to be. Well actually you know it is going to be low but not how low. Sometimes they water sometimes not. Seems like I spend most of my time chasing the track. Now guys are experimenting with different products but this is new to me not having a go to product.

White Sticky Kicks is the most popular at OCRC

All I did was remove the washers, but that's when the controversy broke out:sweat: I went racing yesterday

bds81175 03-03-2013 05:39 PM

So were you looking for more steering under accel coming out of a corner or at speed on a straight away? Sorry to keep going back to this but it just isn't chiseling it's way into my pea brain how removing washers helped. Obviously you felt the improvement though right?

I haven't made this adjustment in a few weeks on my car, but I recently did this on my dads new kit and he and I both felt more steering overall because his car wouldn't steer in the sweeper and just kept pushing

Thanks Yankeefan I will try that out, I did run about 4 packs on it today at the track and the only thing I did so far was add some 1/4oz weight to the left and right areas by the servo and that helped. I was actually able to put down faster laps with my b4 then I was with my t4 that is boosted and I'm running my buggy bone stock........

If you could sacrifice some traction you could always move the battery forward too

Traction isn't a big issue, the clay I run on at Coyote Hobbies is similar to WCRC and I'm currently running a shorty with one foam in front and several in the rear. I'll try that as well and move the shorty all the way up front.

It makes sense to run the entire package. With two companies pointing back and forth if you have issues, now one company to deal with would be easier if product is as good.
