What size is the flywheel? 34mm...same as Losi. Rear motor position not very popular? No, most people like the front position. It has more corner speed and still plenty of rear traction. What is the equivalent to Tekno 450 or 350 oil...and the Tekno diff oil? Tekno oils are in CST. Associated oils have the CST rating on the bottle. So Tekno 450 would be in between AE 35wt and 37.5wt. Tekno 350 would be equal to AE 30wt. oil. A lot of folks love the PT racing oils. They also measure in CST. I don't think Tekno sells oil. Good starting point box set-up or Lutz Fall Brawl or Battle of the Sickest? I've ran the box setup and the Mo Denton setups, both are great starting points. I'll probably try a Lutz setup this year. 6 washers on Ackerman popular?
I think I've only seen setup sheets with 4 washers used (either 4 on top or bottom or 2 top/2 bottom), but I could be wrong.
Thanks ahead of time. I am sure I will have more questions.
Here's my stab at your questions.
