Jason, are you guys doing flat or angled servo mounting on your cars?
i personally only get to run asphalt so i always throw the servo on the angled mounts.alot of the carpet guys running my kit have been running them flat on the chassis.i ran mine flat at the snowbirds.it felt real good but my shoo goo job was lacking and my servo popped off in all my runs.
i should practice my shoo goo techniques so i can finish a race.
for my main i glopped it on heavy and it stayed.only problem was taking the servo off the chassis after the birds.it was like trying to take gum out of a kids hair.
