Looking good WC nothing wrong with the FT setup at TRCR. Looks like you are running on brown carpet you have so much traction.

Sorry guess I can not post video from an iPad.

Hey ? That was last night , damn my ride was good but my tires not so good .

The traction at Trcr changes as the layout ages .


Med traction when new and the grip just goes higher week by week week .

We had this layout sense April , way longer than normal for us ...

Usually change every 2 months ..


You can run slicks or well broken in threads ..
Those were garbage can tires , tires I find in the garbage or when I get lucky , one of the Ae drivers kicks down his old set of tires to me ...

My local sedan track has less grip than that!

You ever race anywhere else?

o sure , we have three other excellent indoor tracks , also have raced the Local NCT for many years ....

NCT tour's the outdoor tracks in Eastern WA & OR in the summer....


You be surprise Craig ...
If a racer is fast at TRCR ?

He almost certain to be fast anywhere , in or out door ....
I did not go a 22 lap last night , I crashed way to many times but I have done before & only a few can do or even wish for ...



The boys whining on the side ?

They can hand it to some of the fastest racers
nationally you know ...

Ps Cameron , did not forget you with the set-up , just that you will be making a ft sway bar from the lightest 4x4 ft bar .

Will be making mind today and will try to tell you how after the attempt .

will need AVIDS springs so get some .
also >>>back sway bar , black

try finding BK pic's of his bar , will be helpful......

Doesn't surprise me at all. You just look super dialed in there.

Well .... That was just practice for me you see ...
Wanted the 22 and blew out .

1st run
I changed the truck back to the 2 1/2 oz with yellow rear spring & laps times were immediately improved ...

So I did the "Cameron" for the 2nd run and removed the 2 1/2 oz for the lightest weight..

results?
well it just not working for the truck all I can say.

loss grip, specially forward grip...

So back to the 2 1/2 oz for the main you saw ....

Default Debate Rages...

So A friend wants a new SC truck and is looking at both the factory team edition and the SCTE..
He has numerous max amps 6500 packs and going to saddles isnt in his plans. do these fit?
Two of us currently are running SCTE's and have spares but hes not sure if he wants to go that route which doesnt make sense to me as we already know what and how to fix the issues with the scte, plus we have spares.
Soooo what are the known issues with the Team edition of the sc10 4X4?
I know all about the search button but like the scte thread there WAY too many pages to scroll thru.
and of course we can leave the whole debate about which is better because I dont care just the known issues would be fine.

There's no major issues. The only minor issue is shimming the differential with the right shim which costs about 3 dollars.

The truck is very durable and we have figured out the right setups for indoor and outdoor.

Fair enough. I can say it was not the best choice in Pasco either. But that was a bad day all around. Real good at Dave's RC Tracks. Going to get some PRCR clay track time in next week.

Interested in how the sway hooks up to the front arms on the 2w
