i would recommend a M2C clutch for a .28....the losi clutch imo is sub par for .28's....they work...but a M2C will work alot better for ALOT longer......Reg Hard shoes on .9 spring's will last you gallons to come.


DO NOT stall the clutch on a .28 too much...you WILL burn down the shoes.....a .28 has the low end torque to compensate for a little clutch lag that a mild .21 might require to get adequate power to the wheels....i ALWAYS ran .9's or green and black in the losi clutch when i used to run a .28...i run .21's and only .21's now.......also going up a tooth on the CB might not be a bad idea to take away a little bottom end....also a smaller venturi would help.
