We will fix that! You should be able to get that tripple with a 17.5. If you over jump the double its over, but down side and land WFO you should get it everytime.

I'm running the rs in mine with the 17.5 Greg set it up for me and with the 19tooth I couldn't get over it at all went to the 24 and I can clear it and keep up with the guys on the straights. I did notice my motor was a little warm after 30 min or so of driving but it wasn't anything I think I should be concerned about.

My truck is broke but I am bringing my son down to race his Slash. Maybe we will double duty race it and run Mod SCT too.

I have not raced a SCT yet.

I'll be there too, hopefully traffic is decent so I can get some practice in.

Cameron, I'll bring my 4WD and you can borrow a speedo out of it if you need it.

Am I nuts for wanting to sell my Kyosho RT5 and go back to a T4. I was at the track today and running my sons T4 and I was way more consistent with my laps. Maybe it is because I ran Associated products years ago and it just feels more comfortable.

I'm a little nervous about running my RB5 for the same reasons. I've been using AE products since like 1990 so this was a big switch for me. I got to run Terrorizer Reed's K car last summer and it was nice. A solid ride for sure.
