I'm at the track right now running me B4.

Oman !



My point ?

As perfect as my Sc 10 is (BTW, really is kinda fast )

The buggy makes it go even faster.

Tom, you should have no problems. Tracks and driving style obviously make a difference but here is my current setup and what I get. 2608.2g, RX8 with Pro4-4600 and either Reedy 4000 shorties or HVR 4000 shorties. The track is on the smaller side at roughly 80x110ft and is pretty loose. For the Pro4 class average fast laps are just under 24 seconds. Our qualifiers are 6min and the mains are 8min. I usually run four or so laps before the races starts and a one or two after the end of the race. With the extra laps and 8 minutes of racing my batteries typically take less that 3200 mA when I charge them. I have gone to 11 minutes and change on 4000 shorties before lipo shutoff when out practicing on my own.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for your insights. Wow...2608gms is really good. The ROAR specs are 2505gm. Did you add any weight? What is your weight balance?

For Shorty packs I noticed most are locating them transverse and forward. Any chance that a central mounting works even better? I have the my ESC on the right side so the center chassis area is free for whatever I want to do. Placing in along the center line would reduce chassis role but may require more added weight to balance out the chassis.

Once I get a chance I plan to get 4 scales so I can see what added weight I will need to add to get a 25/25/25/25 weight balance.

Tom, go to post 34060, you must have missed the picture that Cherry posted. Shows the shorty mounted inline. (not sure why the picture didn't come in the quote?)

Thanks. That looks good. I like that it uses the FT Saddle pack mounts.

May I ask what motor/turns are you running? I'm thinking about going the superlight route and want to run a 2 pole 540 if I do.

I am running the viper vxt10r and a viper 5.5

Hope some one can PLEASE help me out. I know the SC10 4x4 diff rebuild kit # 91007 SHOULD use the .5mm washers (shims) on each end of the outdrive sides under the pin. I figure .5mm is .19 (thousandths) correct ? I just got a NEW kit and the shims do not measure .19. Did I get an OLD obsolete kit ??
I'm confused
Please help !!

Do not use the the .2 shim that use to go on the out drives .

Only use the .5 shim and place one under each sun gear.

Do you know what .5 is converted to in thousandths ? So I can make SURE I have the correct ones.
THANKS

If you have the latest rebuild kit the thicker shim for the sun gear is included .
The .5 has the biggest diameter and is thickest , the .2 shim that goes on the out drives is thinner & a smaller diameter .

Do not get confused with the smallest diameter .2 shims that only fit on the spider gears ..

again...

do not use the shim that is for the out drive cups, only use the larger & thicker shim under the sun gears .

Nope my BIG washer only measures almost .008. (would be equal to .2mm) I think I received and OLD kit.

Yep, that's the one (Big) I am measuring.
I did order some .5mm Washers from A-main for stock, but now have to wait for them to arrive. Guess I shouldn't have bought the kit off FleaBay. Must be OLD stock.

If you have the new sun gear shim ?

It will be twice as thick as the other shims ...

can use 2 x .2 shims under each sun gear instead, still remove & not use the out drive shims ...

Thanks for the help, I'll just wait a few more days and use the correct shims.
