what tires are you running at the rear?

Servo Saver
 
Hi All,

Is there any good or bad position to mount ball studs for steering on the servo saver? For example, there are 3 hole positions on my saver, top, middle and bottom, does it matter where? In addition, does mounting the ball studs facing front or back of the car have any significant effectiveness?

Thanks
Fast Faisal :spidey:

if you have a dynamic front end, look at the steering link angle. make sure it goes between the upper and lower arm and not binding when fully turned. mine is in the middle hole

This car was run with 4 cell stock in a field of 6cell stockers a few weeks ago (Ede Netherlands). After they figured out the rollout, it lapped the entire field. Sounds good to me! I like the design, a shame they stuck with the non-interchangeable wheels!

Anybody running a Slapmaster 2.3 conversion? If so, Brian recommends using the Hyperdrive damper tubes. Does anyone know how long those are? Also if I needed to, where are they available?

If you prefer to use side turnbuckles, the Carpet Knife chassis also has holes to accept the longer side-links. I think the one-piece links are stronger, lighter and easier to maintain though.

thanks G ace!

i really like the CRC 3.2r layout and the fact it has no T-bars

why isnt it as good as the yrx12 for ourdoors would it really matter if your on the throttle most of the time?

I have to slow down a lot for the front wheels to get grip in the turns, I'm not sure what kind of springs I have up front - mediumor hard I think.. Running corally silver front tires..

Try a Gold (36 shore) or Silverstar (34 shore) front tire, they're softer than the Silver (38 shore) ones. If you're still having trouble with it you could try the goldstar (30 shore) tire, but I think that's too much.

I have a clear anodized (silver) pair that I used at the Nats in October. I paid $10 each. If you want them I'll sell them both for $10. PM me if you are interested.

i think its just what you prefer.i think i am going to pick up a link car and get used to it to see how i like it.i didnt like it the first time i tried my buddies but that could be for a million different reasons.i always wind up finding things i like about every car and i see alot of you guys seem to rave about the link cars.i wanna see what they are all about. :cool:
