I had a good run with the E4JS last Saturday. Finally got the steering drift issue fixed. I kept thinking that it was steering slop that caused it and even after shimming everthing on the front end it still wasn't fixed. Finally I suspected that it was the KO low profile servo that wasn't centering properly. Swapped it for another KO servo and the problem was solved.

I ran Jaco Blue rubber premounts on the front and greens in the rear. After a days worth of racing at WCRC the blues were well worn. The greens were still fresh. This car really makes good traction. The fun part about it was that I gave my buddy a good run for the money with his XRay T2 009. I made sure to remind him that most everything on my car was plastic.

Right now the only thing keeping me from the top spot is the fact that I don't have a Tekin RS for 17.5. I was able to pick-up a used SPX to replace my extremely slow Novak GTB. Depite the most aggressive profile and the tallest gearing short of over temping, it still wasn't fast enough. The JS was a dream to drive in the infield but was no match once it hit the straights.

I think I might try 13.5 instead to see if there is less disparity with the have and have-nots of the Tekin RS. Hopefully the speed of the 13.5 will level the playing field more.
