Temps are 145F after 5min heat and 165F after an 8min main.

With the wrong gearing and timing this combo is flat on top.
Yeah, I just threw it on the track asap. Hadn't gotten to slam out any laps in weeks. I will definitely adjust these things and get a better judgement.

Do the garodisks round off as easily as the stock pads?

You are in the SC10 4x4 thread. What do you think we will say.. We would love to make you a convert come on over to the SC10 4x4 you won't be sorry. Just pay attention to what is said here. Tons of great info. You would want to get a kit instead of the RTR if possible. If you can you might want to wait for the Factory Team kit. You can get the current kit for 209.00 shipped at Tower if you have a member code.

Do you race? I mean you can get the RTR and upgrade as you see fit. As with almost every RTR out there you will eventually want to upgrade the electronics.

I swap between 2 of the 6000, and 1 5600, between my 4x4 and 2x4.

They fit perfect and supply plenty of power...

Oddly enough the 6k packs weigh less than the 5.6k pack.

BTW, stay away from the soft packs, if you can help it.
Ok thanks! How long did it take for you to get them from the international warehouse? I was only thinking of getting 2 soft packs to have ASAP from the USA warehouse.

Bear in mind, the SC10RS was an evolution of several other trucks that have been around for years (The T3 evolved into the T4 which was stretched into the SC10, which was evolved into the SC10FT, where the setup was tested and tuned, all the while, they released 3 different RTR versions of the SC10 and finally the SC10RS. The RS may not have all the FT bling, but the box setup was certainly honed in a LOT.)

I will bet that the SC104x4 RTR would be reasonably competitive as long as you upgrade the slipper, but it won't be as competitive in 4x4 as the SC10RS is in 2wd. One is a tried and true chassis that has evolved over years and years, the other isn't even a full year old yet. It's fantastic, but it's still just a baby.

they will not round off at all!! It would round the spur off first but its not going to happen either way, they are a much harder material than the cloth stock ones.

Made mine out of perfboard as a temp fix until I can order the center diff. Works better than stock.
