RX8 w/ SC4x 5.5T
Savox 1258
Garodiscs to help with the fading AE slipper pads
Dual Stage pistons

Ran soft holeshots, which is the same tire that the top 3 guys had on their Losis....
The center diff is something I would suggest looking into. darn near made the car night and day from what I was able to do with it.

As for tires, I really wonder if this vehicle would like different compound tires in the front versus rear, same tread all around. And I agree with what others have said about not being able to use the same tread as losi guys. May be less of an issue though if you run say an exotek chassis to up the weight.

I needed a few packs run through it after I went C-Diff to get used to it again. It was like a different truck.

You can go by someone who says the truck is good, sticks with it, wins with it , loves it & Ae ....
and what gear specifically are you saying that is aftermarket that doesn't work WC from your personal experience?

i have tried panther raptors all the way around and it wasnt as good as with a boa in the rear, but then again boas all the way around didnt feel as good on the track.
This truck does seem to like different grip patterns front to rear.

Thanks, how high is the traction on this as the 8mm mod would not be a good way to go out here since traction is so low and from what I recall, that was to help with traction rolling?
