Went and raced outdoors today. Track was w/o water all day and was basically a rutted dust bowl. I got my ace handed to me by 3 Losi's.

I couldn't put the power down for nothing. Everytime I turned I thought the back-end was going to come around.

Tried everything, pulleys, pins, current limiting, loose as heck slipper. Couldn't make it work for nothing.

Drove my bud's Losi for a bit and could tell the massive difference in these conditions. His truck put the power down real nice and was very predictable.

I was down 2 laps after 10mins. Not good.

Thanks goodness we don't run on that track very often, if we did I wouldn't have bought the Ae anyways. We mainly run indoors, where I normally clean up and AE rules....

Being on this side of an ace-whoopin ain't too much fun. I did manage a 3rd place, only because one of the Losis (my bud) hit LVC......

Does anybody run in these conditions w/ success?
