I had this issue as well. But it went away once I set the camber properly.

Thanks guys. I wanted to make sure nothing was wrong, thought maybe the chub screws were crooked.

OK, so the first time I tried using this stuff - I followed the instructions and wet it before applying it to the inside of my body. I found that method really sucked as it ruined my paint (from the water on the tape), AND it didn't adhere to the lexan...

SO - I opted for another approach that worked really well and has held up to an astounding amount of abuse over the past year.

All I did was apply a generous amount of tried-n-true Shoe-Goo where I wanted to reinforce the body (mainly the whole front of the truck) and then simply cut my fiber fix "tape" and plop it into the Shoe-Goo and let it dry over night!

The end result really blew me away as far as how it held up over time. My front shock tower never broke through the hood after doing this... Hope this helps!

This may have been brought up before, but the ET48 manual has a part number wrong. I bent my rear center driveshaft, and in the current manual online it says that the part number is TKR5476. I purchased this part on amain and was surprised to get a really long rear driveshaft for the NT48. The correct part number is 5676.

Thanks, the truck is crazy fun, and incredibly forgiving. I took TQ, but took 2nd to my buddy who was way more conservative than I was.

I hope the picture is readable..

Marshals were placed very nicely, because everyone was able to get turned rubber down in a fairly quick time, and no marshals injured.

The track is a blast, and hopefully they have a steady turnout this season!

Temps are 200 degrees with a CL at 60??? Seems a little off doesn't it. I ran the same diffs and electronics and come off bigger tracks in the 130's

What were the track conditions? If it was loose, you may have been getting too much wheel spin in which case you'd have higher temps. I've been having problems at my track with high temps because of the track being loose. I went up a few teeth on my pinion to help lower the temp.

I don't run on any tracks that would be considered high grip. But my temps are never about the 140's tops. Haven't been to the track in the video yet but 200 sounded high on the setup sheet Will posted
