Thanks for the input! I would not have guessed to try loosening up the front diff! I'll give that a try. And I'm running Tebo's 2015 Reedy Race setup with 45f/40r ae shock oil. Just driving it in my house, it has a turning radius of about 4 feet.

I didnt get a picture of mine, but my steering looks absolutely identical to yours. I matched your picture to my car and it looks nearly identical as far as I can tell

Same as with mine, and I have zero problems making it around tight 180s.

Thanks for checking guys! Haven't had much of a chance to play with it this week but I'll try loosening the front diff for Sunday (race day). The more I'm thinking about it, it definitely makes sense and something I never would have thought of! Thanks again!

Diff tuning in a wheeler is almost as important as a shock package. Keep messing with it, until you find your setting.

Hi guys,

Is it still worth getting the ZX6 as for now? The reason i am asking is that i do not want to get caught off guard buying the kit when a new version suddenly pops up the next day or so.

I know how quickly this hobby updates itself so i would appreciate some advice.

I recently saw a ZX6 that had the wing screwed to the wing stay and not with the clips as it is standard to the ZX6 and RB6 too.
Where can i buy this and has anybody got a part number?

u can make it yourself if you want. just remove the nubs and dril a 2mm hole then i have a 3mm tap and tap the plastic but u could do that with a screw be sure to use a nice countersink washer on the top of the wing so it wont rip over the screw head and boom you have a screw down wing
