Hi guys. Here is Cody's set-up from the Nats:



I actually wished we had moved the sway bar balls in a little like Jared did, just because the track was so gummy, and Cody had too much traction. Anyhow, our set-up uses Kyosho oil which might be useful. Also, we run the rear camber link short, and that is a typical thing for us. We also used normal gearing, 46 tooth spur, which we actually thought about changing it, but felt like it would change the feeling of the car too much so left it alone. We use the medium green spring in the back, and Jared uses the light blue with the upper shock mount in one hole from where we have it. Last but not least, we used the new 2mm off-set rear hub, and Jared ran the old geometry. I don't think there is a huge difference in the way the car feels with the new rear hub to be honest.

Hello guys, how to lower the car tendency to roll when approaching jump on throttle after corner? I have to slow down the car and make the car really straight to make it jumps nicely.
Thanks

Maybe the new ones, but mine without the holes drilled in the head seems heavier than the other engines I own.

tough question without all your set-up info, sounds like you might have too much side bite witch could be solved with a different tire

I would personally trying to run the short front upper camber link ,and switch to the number 7 hole on the rear tower. I think this will help but tires will also make you feel locked in or really loose if your off with your selection.

Tested the BullDog on the car this weekend. And i have to say, motor is running really cool and i did have tons of steering, however. I am unsure if it was the body or just my setup cuz i did not compare with stock body. But everyone else seemed to have problems with steering, and i had more than ever....
I really recommend it, plus, it looks great!

Btw, it was a bit tight with stock air filter. Where can i get the TKI2 filter and holder?

Hi Mate,

You can get them from RC Champ or Infernos only.
Maybe Amains if they have it listed or they most likely can get it you
