As far as the brakes go, I have just enough to slow the car down but usually not enough to lock the tires up. At the end of the straight I just set the car and tap the brake and turn. I am not on the brakes much at the end of the straight. Now.. the next 180 is another story! LOL What truer are you using now?
And I have a truer but it's a work in progress. It is an Integy fully auto truer but I put a hudy main motor in it so it could handle the 8th scale tires and i'm currently finishing wiring it all up. That motor took some redesigning to get it in the case. But I have been using BJ and Mark's Hudy Auto tire truer and I really dont want to have to set theirs up for my 8th scale so i'm going to try to get mine going in time for the next race.

Kyle, if you need to, its no big deal to switch the arbor so you can do the 1/8 tires. Also, ours will do the camber.
The other thing you should have Mr Erock explain to you is the split in tire sizes.....front to rear. That will also make a big difference in how the car drives.

Looks like we have a decent weekend coming up. Temps in the 70's. There are chances of rain but, we will work around that.

Guy's, I had a great time racing.
GT8 racing was some of the best this season. Billy, your the class of the field ..... Z, glad you are getting the bugs out, your car looked good in the main and 4min re-fuel did not cost you anything with fast pitstops ..... Johnny we had great runs all weekend, we both had issues in the main .... Tom, thanks for making the effort to get out Sunday. Nice to see all but one car running at the end.
Ski ...... Thanks for quick pit stops
Kenny .... Body looks great ..... glad we made progress on your car and looking to see you running next time.
See everyone for the last race.
Mark
PS it's very wet here .... but all good at home
