question about setup for carpet. Are you guys using a softer tire then what you use to run with the "other" 1/12 on the market? I have not run a none t-bar type car, but was always running purple fronts and gray or pink rears. with the db12r, I am running a double pink front. they are not wearing any more then a purple and the car does not seam to be twitchy at all. just checking. I am thinking because it carries so much more speed that my setup is looking for like a 19t setup then a stock setup.
the db12r is great. I have never been comfortable running a car 6" from the board. they always wander a little, but with the db12r, I can keep it mear inches from the boards and it holds its line. the car is soo stable, it build confidence quickly.
what are you guys going to run for you series race next weekend? need to know if I bring stock, 19t or brushless.

i will have a receiver pack in there shortly.i didnt get it yet but it should be here this week.i do run one but i just changed it over this week. thanks for the nice words on the car buddy.let me know when you ready for one.parts support is plentifull as will the car once i get through the rush.being that it is a new car i fell behind on it.the demand for them is strong but once i get through the rush i will have a running inventory constantly of cars and parts.the website will be finished in a week or so to make it so you can buy online and also download setups,setup sheets,instruction manual or our soon to come setup guide.my goal is to supply the most advanced 1/12th on the market and have extremely strong support for it.we developed a car that makes 1/12th easy to maintain,fun to drive and real fast.the car has far exceeded the handling of my T bar car.my T bar car was good but T bar cars are limited.this car seems to have the best of both worlds between the link and the T bar without the hassles.we were very happy with the performance we got out of the car.it allowed us to move away from the old technology and enforce the new.

I ran magenta / magenta (dbl. pink, 35 shore, etc.) on my car at our med/low traction track. That being said, I have seen every thing from purple/ white, to gray/gray, to magenta/pink in stock motor cars of all types. The recommendations in the manual have been pretty much right on from my limited experience. BMI recommended magenta/magenta, and if a magenta front is working for you, stick with it.

What happend was we got more power from the batteries mainly in mod 1/12th. The cars were running so hard that we started heating up the purple compounds tires. This made them get gummy and the car would traction roll and steer too hard. Someone figured out that double pink foam was diffrent and would not get gummy so they started running that up front. Then the mod 1/12th guys started lighting up the rear grey compound tires. They started running pink rears on carpet just like on asphalt. Then the stock club race guys on lower traction tracts figured out that could run the same tires when the grip was low and go a lot faster.
So...we all run softer tires now and we go faster.
