Also, I've just got my new clutch (first new clutch, and I'm new to all this) which came with 3 sets of springs, black, yellow and silver. Which would be best in my truggy? It's not going to be used for racing, but just some general driving (field, car park, bumb and jumps etc)

Thanks

Hi James - I can't comment on the 2072 with the .28, but it should be as good if not better then the Jammin pipe, as the 2072 is made for the GO range of engines in particular.
If you are running the new GX series motors, the 2072 is a must We have tested all three motors in the new range now, and the 2072 pipe provides fantastic performance on all three (as well as the MG66).

With your clutch shoes generally the golden coloured springs are .9 mm (soft), the silver ones 1.0 mm (med), and the black ones 1.1 mm (hard).
For the use you describe the silver 1.0 mm springs should be fine. If you find the truggy a bit sluggish or boggy off the mark, change up to the siffer black 1.1 mm springs for a later engagement and more aggressive take off.
For general use go for carbon shoes, as they wil do the job and are much cheaper than alloy ones. If you start racing alloy shoes will be better.
