What kind of gearing do you think for a 17.5? Usually high grip, but no one knows until today... I'm currently geared 31/69 and around 139* after a 6min qualifier.

Also what kind of conditions would you want to run a shorty?

looks a little wet, lol

Thnx my dude...ill give it a try...

lol, just get the rpm ends, lol. You can even get a pretty color. Cars that are pretty go faster.

i use black rpm cups. maybe next time ill use yellow. yellow is fastest

I have yellows on mine and yeah it is really fast. I can pull wheelies through the corners.

Nah white is fastest because it reflect light so it doesn't adsorb the heat waves as bad as yellow.. So it will reflect the light on to your tires and heat them up, so you will get more traction.


haha

lol, my old body was yellow and red. So I got yellow ones. This new body is white and orange, so I might get white cups. I firmly believe the cups need to match the paint, lol.

Does anyone know what set up hartson and mayfield were running at hor rod shoot out?

I have been trying to find out myself, but it has not been posted.

I might try to borrow a shortie this weekend and see how I like it. What is the optimal position? Middle? 2 foams front and 2 foams rear? Running on an outdoor 8th scale track that is rutted from the rain.

3 foams front and rear...i have a pro-match battery up for sale if anyone is interested

Iknow there a many differant ways to position the shorty pack, I have noticed that Hartson runs 1 1/2 foam behind the pack and fills tj front with foam until the gap is closed. This is how I run mine as well.

yea..i was just correcting because he said 2 front and rear for it to be positioned in the middle when it is actually 3 foams..but yes ive known people that run it toward the front also

I like mine in the middle
