Are you talking FZRC this weekend? That track is kind of small so I would'nt gear to high. You want good bottom end on that track. Maybe I will see you there.

What are you having trouble with?

Rear traction, when I come out of the corner and get on the gas the truck wants to spin out.

I changed some things in the rear of the truck last night. I went to a 4.0 toe block and put the #2 spacer under the block.

I just finished up building and painting my first FT SC10 last night. I can't wait to get her out on the track! What do you guys think? It's hard to tell from the pic., but all of the paint is metallic and shiny.

The 4x4 shocks are designed for a heavier truck. They will make it handle like hell.

So, I just got the MMP ESC for my FT SC10, but it needs to have a connector installed on the + - leads. What type do most people use on their SC10's? I am assuming deans, but I'm just making sure this is the best choice. I'm planning to go with Gens Ace LiPo's.
