Anyone know the difference, other than weight on the Losi silver aluminum clutch shoes, and the blue aluminum clutch shoes? Or know of a setup sheet that shoes them included on tuning options? I just ask, because I have a bunch of good silver ones, and didn’t know if I could just substitute the silver ones for the blue ones, and it be the same. Or would it change the feel of the clutch.......
