2. I believe it has been mentioned that with the standard hexes, the car will have more traction. I have yet to verify this as I didn't have time last Sunday to try the two on the track back to back.

Is anybody else using the Xray hexes to help take some of the slop out?

I just use shims behind the hexs to keep the slop out. I only shimmed 2 of the hexs because the rest were fine. I use the +2 hubs and I have no problems with traction.
