Schumacher Cougar KF!!!

I have SVR, SV2 and KF.
SVR will be the choice if the track is very loose.
The KF can soak up the bump better than SV2 (longer wheelbase and little heavier battery).
For now SV2 is my back up car and KF is my primilarly. There is a lot of tuning I have to try on KF and so far I am only playing with the shocks.
My choice is KF SV2 KR(SVR).
I will bring both MM this Sunday so you can try them out.

I'm just contemplating whether to redo the setup for dirt track.
On a damp track, even RM can also be a struggle.

NICE!!! What are your impressions? Doesn't look like you have an option to set up for dirt track or not. As far as I know, only employees of STK can use that track on a regular basis... unless of course you are one.

Easy to drive with the stock setup. Almost felt like a 4wd.
Why I'm contemplating this for even dirt is Tom's setup for low grip astro:

It does look interesting, as the weight bias is shifted much more to the rear. Worth experimenting so I've ordered a ball diff to try with it.

Not an employee, and that was my first time with both the car and track.

does anyone know if the tianhao ufo motor will fit in the kf?

It's a 540 can it will fit but you may need to rotate the motor so the tabs are facing forward to clear the top deck. Changing motor will require take off the whole spur assemble.

Has anyone tried this on a dry, dusty, clay track?

I can't see the pics linked above for the shorty conversion. I purchased one with my kit but haven't installed it yet. It basically adds another belt tensioner on the right rear bulkhead and uses a longer belt. There are two plastic holders on either side that ride in the 4 little grooves in the chassis and the little tabs on the underside of the side protectors hold them in place, from my recollection it's 3 positions.
