It reminded me of putting +3 wheels on for the first time. Hard to describe 'it felt even more planted' but I can definitely push it harder. I've only ran a few times now and last time out I put stiffer springs (yep, still running V2, losi reds, w the fatty's) all the way around and to me it feels like it drives itself, could not be happier with the thing. Plan to keep it as is a few more times and then I might try laying the the front's down one more hole just to see what happens.

Anyone have suggestions on how i can get more cornering speed out of my sc10? I have blue springs in the front and green on the back with medium sway bars on both and 30wt shock oil on the factory team threaded shocks. I couldn't make it around the 8th scale track turns at much speed today and need to improve it.

any help appreciated

looking for on power traction! what do you think of running the +3mm just on the front? has anybody ever tried it? from my research a narrow rear track width adds rear traction. whats the consensus?

Describe what the issue is? Are you pushing on corner entry and then the truck snaps to oversteer in mid to late corner? Does it over rotate? What are the track conditions? Is it dry, dusty hard pack? Loose/loamy? Any details you can kick out will help us help you out.

Corner exit traction (trying to get squared up) or straight line acceleration traction? Geez, I ask more questions than I answer...must be management material. If you are just looking for overall rear traction you can't do a whole lot better than increasing rear toe in. Obviously you need the right tire too. Some details about your setup would be helpful too.

!!!+3 in front has less steering so it make you fell like you have more rear grip.-3 rear would give you more traction if they had it. the best way to get rear traction it to put your weight higher and to the rear(but it not the best thing to do this truck jumps bad this is why you see almost all set up with battery in front./// (on power traction only!!! not in trun) if i where you this is what i would do/// start with anti squat at 0/// add toe in till you get the grip you want. once you get it where you can handle it getting on the straightaway try driving hard in to a off power turn !!!note!!! you should have a push now what you haft to do is add anti squat this will let the truck rotate more going in to the turn!!!one more note!!! anti squat also add more on power traction so once you add it you can take out some toe. try to keep your toe in low as possible (to much can take speed form the the truck) and to much anti squat can cuz the truck to spin out going in to turn.

the issue is im leting off the throttle going into the turns, but on exiting them when i need to be hiting the gas, my turn radius widens up and I can't make the turn. So I basically can't take a corner at any speed. The track is indoors, hard clay, but not too dusty since we wet it down once in a while. I have my battery pretty forward loaded, but not all the way. I think there is one piece of foam in front of it.
