Monty..
2 green carbon shoes
2gold aluminum shoes good setup?
planning on running both flywheels on my truggy at motorama just to try out which one feels better and for run times also... maybe running the plus 4 at that event.. not enough time on the FMS to try it there on an indoor track in the dead of winter.. i'll only be running truggy and maybe pull out the revo at this event

Hey monty. Got a Q for ya. On the rear bearing. Does the plastic retainer go towards the carb or towards the back plate. And when I sinch down the clutch nut the rotation feels gritty. I havetried different collets and put a washer behind the collet, nothing resolves it. The p5xlt has about 1.25 gal. Through it

replace both bearings if it feels gritty
and as for the orientation of the rear bearing... when you look at the bearing from the back plate... you should see the balls should be exposed... so the retainer should face the carb...
