Your diff is too loose. When you set the diff you should hold the diff gear and one of the out drive while try to turn the other out drive. If it turn set it tighter. The way you set the diff you may have a chance the slipper slip unless you lock down the slipper.


Jose I will be at the track this Sat and Sun. If you want me to help you set the diff and slipper just look for me.

Hey guys, I have gone a couple of times to the track to practice but now I will like to give racing a try. Now my question is which transponder do I buy and is there any local hobby store selling them?

Thanks

This is one of the best transponders and compatible with all the local tracks. Tri-County Hobbies carries them as Glenn said, give them a call ahead of time to confirm they have them in stock.
