4) Tan springs front and rear
5) removed my rear sway bar

These changes made the car way more controlable and with foam tires it grabbed the road well. With the stock Traxxas Rally tires it was easy to drift. I had so much grip that the 30S Hobby wing ESC was a little hot after 10 minutes. I can't wait for the 10.5t Ballistic motor and Edge 2S speedo.
You really put 5k diff oil in your shocks?! Are you sure you didn't mean 50 weight shock oil?
I'm new to the Rally and I was just looking for some onroad tuning tips...I was just trying to make sure I was reading your post correctly
