doesnt really make sense??

1) 1 set will last 50 times longer than the stock ones for only 5.00 more
2) you already have 600.00+ into your truck,whats another 5 bux?
3) i ship anywhere for 5.00 usually arrives within 10 days or less
4) absolutely ZERO maintenance EVER!!, they have more grip than the HD pads and outperform them in all areas.

Unfortunately yes you will always have to buy parts for these RC things, its just the way it is! tires ,fluids, bodies and whatever breaks or wears out, the nature of the beast!

But what I really want to know is:

What's behind the towel?

My guess is that its an Alu steering rack since that appears to be the front left of the truck.

Tho he could have mirrored the image to divert us away from a front slipper proto

Just got back from a race.
2-stage pistons were phenomenal! I could feel, see and even hear the difference. Truck was dialed on a sandy 1/8 outdoor track. Driver was not and electronics were giving me problems so I ended up finishing dead last. Every other truck was a Losi.

I won one of these:

Is that enough for this truck? Seems very high quality.

Blue motor is V1 and the black are v2 motor's. My favorite motor is an older blue 5.5 motor. The black motors seem to carry more gear and don't seem effected by heat as much.

Setup:
Very weird track conditions, wet sand/clay with a bumpy blue groove forming.

they shouldn't pop that easily, I'd replace them.

Okay thanks. I think the pistons where the last piece to the puzzle, my truck is the best it has every been.

WOW, you have your belt set up really tight. I run mine in the same positions with the 19t front pully, and its perfect. I guess every truck is a bit different though

Check this screw often, I didn't notice until I started chasing why my belt tension kept changing.


So, the FT Chassis Brace isn't good?
