by the time you hit the quote button copied and pasted the search link you could of told me what it is thx for the help no help, i dont have alot of time on my hands to search 800 pages so would be nice if someone could just tell me quickly. thx

They were not pinned. The only team member pinned to my knowledge was Mike Nelson. Mike also was running an aluminum chassis but his setup was really different. I used it for the mains and it worked good but uses custom pistons in the shocks, elevated rear uprights etc.

To me Ryan and Kody proved the truck works against Losi's best. Mount up some sadles, install a brace and basket and you are FT race ready. Not really that big a deal.

Keith.

Oddly, Cav didn't know if he was pinned.

TY kghill ,

Not much of a surprise to me don't chea know ....

If you watched how Mikes truck came out of the turn after the front straight you could tell he was pinned. He really had to fight to keep it from doing a wheelie and he was using just a std clutch with FT pads. I felt it after the main and it was not really even warm.

Kody told me he was not pinned and he was running pretty much what Ryan was.

Keith.

I test it back and forth and it does take serveral laps to get into the groove of how it drives. The TLR driver and I are normally a lap up on the others so it is worth the risk to try a a set up to check lap times with. It does have a more point and shoot to jumping. The corner before the table top when I pulled the trigger it seems to lock up and go that way. No time for a last minute adjustment, hence my several missed attemps jumping the table top. The slipper set up was more forgiven through there and over the tables. The pin does push a lot more on power around long sweepers. (the turn you can't see under the camera) Which made for confidence around to high speed turns, but I did open the door once that let the TLR inside of me, mostly my bad there though.

Flames a coming!







Try page 722 for a start. I found it by typing pinned in the search

Holy %^&^ I've reached the end of the thread. I can't express my sense of elation at actually having reached the last post on the last page of this epic thread. So much good information, I am now suffering from analysis paralysis and eyes are bleeding.

Now to put into practice all that I've learned, one of which being don't get into it with either CraigMBA or Coyote....it's like bringing a water gun to a tank battle (just kidding boys:)

I actually have to go back and search the thread as it seems you guys were making changes to the orings, in favor of Trackstar silicone replacements, in the stock shocks, seems they were binding. More reading to do it would seem. Keep the knowledge flowing boys!

My concern is whatever change I'm gonna make before the main usually makes my junk worse.

But it still rotates okay? Interesting.

Congrats! Welcome to the club.

I lol in your general direction.Let me give you the cliff's notes version:

I use those, and recommend them them, further....

What Keith said, plus the sticky, and you'll be gold. On a high bite track, anyway.

He did the work for you. 3 pages over 800 pages? Come on? Really? I for one am not holding your hand.

Miz did that for him. Even that wasn't enough.

I always screw up hardcore when I make a change without extensive practice. My muscle memory of a setup is almost crippling.

Rcjunky. I truly appreciate you reading this entire Thread. I mean that sincerely. Any questions you have past this point any of us will be Glad to answer even if you already read the answer and it got lost in 800 pages of memory. And definitely glad to re-explain things for your specific situation. If there were more of you guys reading instead of bloating with repeated questions, we'd be so much farther with this truck, instead of taking 2 steps back for every 1-2 we take forward.

The trackstar O-rings are the first hop-up I purchased. I used them in my Stock shocks, and put them in my FT upgrades too. Not ever. once. Leaked. Alot of guys save themselves some bucks and just take out the top Stock O-ring and run with the 1 on the bottom and swear by it too. I don't know the difference on the track, but I love the smoothness and for sure noleak of 2 Trackstars. They're worth the 4 bucks. I bought three sets.

Welcome! And I don't bite. PM me anytime, I can help with generic stuff for sure. I'm not a Mantis, Symm, Craig, or (someone else i'm forgetting who will be offended) :P But I can help and i'll answer asap.

Me too! I think these should go a long with the clutch basket and sway bars on the must have list.

For the Record: With your new Avatar, Craig. I can't find your posts anymore. xD

I'll drink to that~
