Start with the one Thad Garner posted on the HPI website. He has his carpet setup. Start with that and go from their.

that's not Iris Green I believe is IRS green or Opaque spring Parts # IRS390 (I don't even know what's opaque color is ? any how IRS makes BLack, Silver,and Gold Springs ,they are actually the in between springs of the associated springs and I assumed that Iris Green is actually IRS Opaque.). .. you could find it at http://www.teamirsrc.com/ and the trinity purple is Trinity congo purple that was used on the old Street weapon.... the purple is .065 spring Trinity part# TK3037

you could use thad set up from cleveland or use Hara's set up from cleveland too, the main diffrences between them is hara's setup used Purple Congo front and Blue Congo rear.. and The Congo blue parts # is TK3104 and it's a.060 spring..

Just an observation

hope this help

Hi all....i just remembered. when i was running my pro4 yesterday, during braking, i can hear sounds like a gear missed a tooth...or the shaft tried to lock up the diff to stop the car. is that normal? cause the sound worries me....afraid i might strip some gears or so....but after the run, i inspected the spur it looks fine. where could the sound be coming from?

Is their a site that has Hara's setup for Cleveland or any other big carpet race he was at? I already checked the HPi site and R/C Zone. Any other sites that have Pro4 setup info?

well havent got the pro4 yet its on its way but it sounds like it comes right out of the box a winner!! went i got the pro3 it was a winner right out the box got trophy in my first state race ever. so i hope its the pro4 is the same way! i sold my losi xxxs for the pro4 the losi was braking arms ever week and i dont even wreck that much maybe touch the wall once all night long so they have a weak point on that car. cant wait to get the pro4 on the track!!

Yea it was pretty nice overall. I very pleased with it. It seems like it is strong to. I did have two big hits on the wall trying to avoid guys but the car bnever missed a beat and nothing bent or broke. I will be ordering some more spare parts this week. Some more gears (if I can find them) some a arms and a few other things.

Default Building the Pro-4

Guys;

I want to thank everyone for the offers of their help and support.

My planned debut race with this Car is still 2 weeks away so there is time to get things ironed out. Also my Main competition has been reading this thread and I've already got them sweating.

Thanks to everyone,
Steven
