droop? i had the same issue, less droop worked for me

Jerome,
try less droop (not much since you are flat landing) and also thicker sway bars on both ends.

I plan on dropping it down a few mm next Sunday, and trying to change the rear oil, the Losi springs seemed to help a bit with the landings, I just hate hearing the "plop/slap" sound when it does land on all 4 wheels but I guess flipping is much worse than a slap sound

they tried to deliver your pkg today Jerome

remember , novarossi tuning , not overly rich on lsn , even during break in , leave top a lil rich

BTW I will take a photo of my Buku and send it to you, there doesn't look like much shoe left, but I can't remember what it looked like new, don't know if I should run it on the X3 or just put on a Losi or a 3 shoe

Wonder who that was? :lol:

Not necessarily "excited" , i am EXCITED to race with my new 4pk s-r though

Grrrr!!!!!!! Went to get the engine after work the bastards sent it to a different post office!!! So now I have to wait until Friday to go and get it. Monty, I sent you an email, do I need new shoes or is that clutch good to run on the X3FM after I clean it up with denatured alchol? Do you know how long the buku shoes work on the Losi? If I do run a 3 shoe or a different 4 shoe would you run composite and aluminum on a losi 4 shoe or all aluminum?

I put a new Reds Team Edition engine in my TKI3 today and started the break in process. At some point I noticed a weird gurggling sound that I assumed was an air leak. The only evidence of a leak I found is wetness on the bottom of the case near the flywheel. Is my front bearing already bad or could the gurggling and wetness be something else?
