I will try it. I put this 12 degree blocks one because more Caster get the kid more stable on breaks and while accelerates, and through bumps section. And I know it´s worst for technical tracks because I loose steer.
I´m now runing 21.5 degrees Caster (Kickup 10º + Caster Block 12º - Insert 1.5 up on B-plate).
If I put standard Caster Block I can work with less Caster, but it will be very unstable. Like 20º (Kickup 10º + Caster Block 10º - Insert 1.0 up on B-plate).
Some Brand work with 26º Total Caster.
I think it´s too mush low caster for Outdoor track, with dusty, bumpy and dry track.
I´m talking about that to get the best setup on this conditions, because I see this buggy on a high grip outdoor track and it works nice.
Thanks for you to help!

Like I have said. I drove on a very bumpy track and the car would not track well and was difficult to drive. I changed my pistons and springs and it worked very well.

My pistons are not available as I machined them myself. I have been waiting for Gene to drive on a very bumpy track to see what he things of the stock or tapered pistons before thinking about manufacturing mine to the public. If he can accomplish the same thing with what he has then I'm not sure it's worth making these. They seem to work very well though.

I think more kckup is what you want not more caster.if the car is loose when braking try less antisquat.

I raced the Sideshow Nitro challenge and it was super bumpy but also wet/muddy and my BR-6 was dialed. I have yet to drive on a bumpy dusty track, but the PNB usually is, so I will know in 2 weeks. I was using the stock 1.3mm pistons with the convex bladders at the Sideshow.

Ben, I think the 1/4 wire springs would have helped in the bumps also. The purple's were too stiff in the bumps for me and Joey at Hurricane.

Based on the race proven BR-6 1/8th scale nitro pro buggy kit, INTECH now releases the new BR-6 E electric pro buggy kit. With extensive research, testing, and development, the BR-6 E is a very competitive buggy right out of the box. The BR-6 E design provides a very stable buggy with great steering that is fast and consistent. See you on the track!:flaming:

I also like nitro buggy and wanted to get a NB16-T is a powerful racer with 1:16 RC Nitro much power under the cowling. Small enough for back yard racing but powerful enough to many large RC model cars to play behind best for fun.

Kind of a gay picture

The dust and the bumps combined is what I think was making it difficult. I have a race in St. Louis I go to that usually challenges the best of setups. Hopefully all the work I did will pay off then! ;)

The 1.4mm springs are really nice guys! I would suggest getting the rear orange and red... and the front pink and purple. Or, just the whole set.

anyone perhaps tried mounting a L-shaped rear ballend at one end ?

No. Because I have removed everything and tried it. Just a short arm setup.

Roger that. I get most of my stuff before I even order it! Gene is quick...real quick.

How's that Maxy's engine treating you, Joey? I'm having a hard time believing the fuel mileage. 10 minutes is super easy down here in Florida now. Once they break in the mileage skyrockets!
