Xray T1
#6196
Hmm.. I'll consider the change. Does anyone think that it will be a problem that I got the additional racing springs? They're all 2 lbs lighter than the Ultimate kit, so I just pretty much run what everyone else does, just slightly softer, I'm sure it's not noticable, just different colors.

Ball diff
Hi guys,
I have a problem with my diff and wonder if anyone of you can shed some light.
I have a T1R for about a year now and the ball diff were great. I rebuilt them when needed. Recently, I was just tightening it a bit at the track since it was slipping a bit. Prior to the adjustment it was re-built and was very smooth. Then after adjustment (maybe 1/4 turn) everything went tight. And it was slipping way more then before adjustment. Diff action became very tight and I was no long able to rotate one wheel with one finger. To get it not to slip I have to tighten it ALOT...almost to the point of a solid rear axle.
Can anyone shed some light as to what need to be done? I'm using Team Associate's carbide balls. And I also rebuilt the thrust bearing too.
Thanks.
Ron

Sounds like the circlip popped out of it's groove. Same thing happened to me the first time I re-built the diffs. Check it out.

That might be it! First time I removed the circlip and didn't have the right tool and distorted it. And I noticed that not all the clip was sitting in the groove. Never thought about it. I'll get some new clips and use a snap ring plier in a couple of days. Thanks Phil.

Raycer vs Factory Team
Hey folks,
I'm in the process of looking at getting a new ride and the xray is looking sweet.
sooo...
If you were to buy one now, would you go for the raycer and get the hop ups needed, or is it better to bite the bullet and get the Factory Team that is coming out soon.
I have been reading and it seems there is agreement on the 1.77 pully set upgrade for sure.
What would I need to purchase in addition to get the raycer up to speed?
What about the factory team?
BTW, I race mainly at SoCal and RC Heat for parking lot races where SoCal is high traction smooth, and RC Heat is medium/high traction and smooth as well.
How would you compare the Xray to the Barracuda? Both seem to be tough with great performance, but Xray parts are available at SoCal Pro Shop.
Thanks for the input,
Scott

Pucho - On carpet do you usually setup the rear end for 3* or 0* anti-squat? If set for 0* which holes do you use upper or lower?
