I think at Ripon I was geared 10.64. I would think at SW you may want to be in the 11.0 range.

Good kid and and great attatude, should bring great things to Team Losi...
I still remembering helping him setting up his first TC3 back in 2003 in a dusty ol parking lot.....Now the kid just lays a smack down.

Contragates, great choise.
-Shookie <><

Hope the kanies are doing well...

I could not agree anymore. I have watched Alan come up through the years and he has the passion to be a great racer. Hopefully we can help him get there.

I run my dual rate maxed out all the time and never reduce it. I will setup the car around full steering throw.

What's the truth: moving the shocks in/out on the shock tower affects increases or decreases grip/traction or it doesnt? Is it true that moving the shocks in/out on the towers only really helps with steeringby making shock react faster/slower?
