Weylin ran the new adjustable timing Viper 17.5 this weekend in my new XXX SCT at are big race. My truck wasn't setup as good in the 1st heat when I ran the Viper vs the other heats when I ran my DUO2 but funny thing was my fast laptimes in all the rounds where less than a tenth difference every round. I felt that the Viper seemed a little slower but it wasn't true by the laptimes.

Next race will be a normal club race so I can test all day now since I have laptimes to go off of now. I want to try my Viper with one tooth in gearing with my current speedo setting as it seemed really good this way in the other DUO2 I ran. I think the Viper might benefit also with that one tooth lower gearing as the DUO felt much better from the tooth drop.

Just need more testing. I did have another guy who burned up a motor run the test 17.5 Viper with no timing and he really liked it. I setup his speedo and gearing for him and it was the best he has ran and will be buying his own adjustable timing 17.5 Viper right after Christmas.

Do you suggest changing the stock setting on the timing on my Viper 17.5 for offroad or go with the stock setting? I never really checked to see where its at to be honest other than I see I can change the timing now. What is the factory set timing on the 17.5?

Thanks
