All will be much appreciated...

Thanks!
That's pretty much what I run in my 4.2 and I was running 34/69 but I recently changed to 35/66 to try to get a lil more out of it. Running the triad slipper. Blinky stock class.

okay but if i move just one more spline on the servo arm it seems to lean over a lot.

I'm running 32/66 and am very happy. Comes off about 145-150

What timing on your trinity d3.5 can do you run at? 0*?

And with that 69 gearing with the 15* was it pretty fast?

I try to google the answer but still needs help please. Indoor clay track; medium bite. My b4 push when enter corner. My logic is that if i can loosen the rear end a bit, then i may have less push when i enter corner. And, if i can increase front end traction, push will be reduced? Thanks

Try the 25 degree front hub or 20 degree and bar code tires. It's what I use and the turn in is nice. And almost no push

I have found out from experimentation that a push is usually a result of tire combinations. Either too much rear grip or not enough front traction. Either go with a rear tire with less traction or a front tire with a little more traction.
