Couple quick suggestions for those planning to run in the Firecracker...
  • Gear down...probably in the 17/90 or 16/86 range to keep temps down.
  • Check your hinge pins...probably a good idea to pick up a cheap set of Traxxas pins with e-clips, or at least reverse your screw-in pins.
I think what will surprise people is how close the racing will be as we get down to the last few minutes. People will be scrambling to keep a truck out there putting laps down....IT'S GONNA BE A BLAST!!!
