Went to wrl final this past weekend in Columbus ohio. First runs of the car and I have to say I'm very impressed with its ability to carve the corners like no other. Took tq and win in stock and made the main in mod. Overall in mod car lacked a bit of consistent rear grip throughout the corner. But it was good being the first runs. In stock car was amazing. Half a second clear of anyone else's fast laps. Just brilliant. No hopups no pucks. Just motor and gearing change for stock.

No 3.5 when dust starts to form tends to over exaggerate the looseness of a car. It's good on wet clay but with dust not the way

I have a quick question... I built my YZ-2 and while doing so the front upper arm mount the goes into the front lower suspension mount was SUPER tight going into the holes... I pressed it in (all by hand, no vice or anything 
) and got it pretty stuck, so I had to turn the chassis over and push on it really hard to pop it out of the lower mount. I held it in my hands the whole time, never put it into any vice to hold it or anything...
Could I have possibly bent the chassis or the upper arm mount? The chassis flexed a bit (like barely), but maybe it is just my OCD worrying about it... LOL
I guess I am asking would it be possible to bend the chassis or arm mount by hand? How strong is aluminum?
I ended up using a very fine sand paper to sand down the nipples of the upper arm mount ever so slightly so that it just goes right into the lower arm mount and sits flush.
Thanks!

Hey guys, I have been running STLNLST's setup and it has been great so far until today. When ever I was going around the 180 turns, my inside rear wheel was lifting. I tried going to the rear inside tower hole and it was better, but it was still lifting. Any ideas what I can do?

+ Adding caster to your car will give it less aggressive
steering entering corners but will give it more steering mid
cornering and exiting corners. It will also keep your car more
stable in bumpier conditions and straight lines. NOTE: you
will always have more steering with more caster especially
when running on high traction tracks and or soft tires.
- Running your kit with less caster will give it more
aggressive steering entering corners but will give it less
steering mid cornering and exiting corners. It will make your
car less stable in straight lines and can be used to take
traction away on high traction tracks.
