Default Update: Tires / Set up

You may recall I was having issues with my lock nuts coming off, especially in the rear on the drivers side. No matter what the wheels were catching on the hub causing the nut to loosen. Final solution: Proline F11 wheels. Exactly what the doctor ordered. They are stronger around the hex than the Losi however the actual wheel is more flimsy. Most importantly the webbing is much smaller and it doesn't catch on the hub. No worries....it no longer breaks.

Set up: My track is inconsistent, hard packed in places, dusty in others. Changed tires to Proline Tazers. Not sure there is a big difference for me from the Blockade. Both worked great.

Read the Huddy set up manual and wrote every adjustment down and based on my tracks I completely re-did my set up accordingly. Coincidently its set up very close to Matt Wolters set up. I do have big jumps and a whoop section. Shocks: 35wt Ft w/ Yellow springs...30wt. Rr w/ Orange springs. 8x1.4 pistons all around. Height: 27Ft. 26Rr. Droop: 104Ft. 122Rr. The truck fights like crazy to stay planted however it's still loose in the rear through turns under off power. Diff Fluid: 7f/5c/3r. I think the car will be dialed once I go to 2k rear. Camber: Pulled a little out from stock up front. Measurement to 21.5mm.

Car and my driving is getting smoother and faster. Forgot to mention the truck no longer bottoms out and jumps flat to nose up. Sometimes a little too nose up.
