Been out of the loop. I'm running the 3.0 with standard 3 gear, can't afford spec racer right now. I mostly run stock. What is everyone doing to make it a lighter, yet fast spec racer? I have not invested in a pucks system or lockout (probably won't run lockout), and carried over all of my aluminum upgrades from the 2.0.

My stock 3.0 is only about ~50g over the limit. I believe it's best to carry as much battery as you can within the weight restrictions, this makes for the flattest discharge curve.
If your track doesn't enforce a ROAR weight limit and you can develop a good setup for an under weight car, then have at it! Light is right in racing.

Got my Spec Racer on Friday from OCRC, built it up Saturday. I have to give huge props to Frank Root for those build vids on FaceBook. Amazingly helpful and a lot of really good tips! That is a top notch added value right there. Earned a repeat customer. You guys should do more of them.
Car gets electronics soldered in this weekend and body paint later in the week can't wait! Solid kit that went together very well!

22 3.0 Spec Racer
Got it yesterday afternoon 1 pm
Thanks OCRC Raceway!
Built it yesterday afternoon
Tested it yesterday afternoon 5pm
Raced it yesterday evening 7pm
Just as I expected, another TLR kit, out of the box, dialed.
So glad they test here.
Medium to hi bite clay.
Good job, great idea for the stock class!

I notice on some setup sheets, some of the top drivers will choose to use a non-TLR spring. Sometimes it's called out by name and in other cases only the rate is given.
I'm curious with TLR having such a wide range of springs, why do some drivers choose to go with another company's offering? Is it to achieve a very specific rate? Is it possible that with two springs of comparable rate, one will feel better?
I'm surprised sometimes to see Kyosho springs used due to their high cost. I'm assuming there has to be good reason to go that route.

Servo mounting
Can someone post some pictures or a video of how to modify the car in order to mount the servo behind the mounts?

If I have a regular 3.0, can I just get TLR232059 (bones only), or is there additional weight savings by getting TLR232058 (whole CVD?)
These obviously go with TLR232056.
Thanks
[QUOTE=Frank Root;14726502]You'll need the aluminum diff hubs, molded outdrives and the driveshaft bones, all together.
TLR232056
and
TLR232058 or TLR232059
