The ET410 is certainly a ton of fun to drive RC. Seeing that nice track...you just sparked my interest in racing again. I used to race at Bumps and Jumps. Pit Stop was next on my list to try. Good turnout for the 1/10 truggy class, or they running them in with another class?

There are a couple of different oil viscosity comparison charts out there. Here is one ... http://site.petitrc.com/reglages/OilChart.pdf

Ran 7/15/5 oils on medium/low grip outdoor track last night, seemed a bit better, but overall not a huge change over kit oils surprisingly.
Will turn my ESC punch down a bit and see how we go, 4600 4 pole is a tad excessive and likely to kill bulkheads I feel

The 4600 is nothing like the 4300, which is a beast. The 4600 is very smooth and controllable. The 4300 is for sct's, and the 4600 is too mellow for that. Let you know when I race it, but the testing so far tells me it is fine.

I’m looking to run my ET outdoors and wanted to try SC wheels/ tires. What are the go to SC wheels for the ET? My slash offset wheels make it about an 1 1/2 narrower than the stadium truck tires. I’m trying to get it to that width or closer to it. Any suggestions?

2nd try... so the recommended slash rear wheel makes the ET much more narrow than with stadium truck tires. I know ST wheels are a bit wider but not over 1 1/2!? Is there another SC wheel out there that will get me to that width or am I reaching here? Thanks in advance

Is anyone else running a 4600 in this with an RSX? I am trying to get the pinion right and am at 19 right now, but this thing is still running cool, so I am thinking of going up some more.

How about front offset slash wheels? I know they are quite a bit wider offset than the rears. I put some on my 410.3 once by accident and they were sticking out like 5mm on each side.

Last time I measured Pro-Line (Traxxas offsets) 4wd and 2wd front wheels it was 2.3mm difference. The front wheels give a RC platform extra width. When I put SC wheels (Trx. 4x4 offset) on my ST (w/Associated wheels), I gave up 4mm of width on each side.

Edit: I should have explained it better. When using ST tires mounted up on Associated stadium truck wheels, and then switch to SC tires mounted on SC wheels that are the Traxxas 4wd SC offset, you will lose about 4mm of width on each side (8mm total). Hope that helps.

I'm running the +1 width hubs, and the +3 AE Shortcourse rims. With is prefect for max Roar rules, for Shortcourse.

A lot of people are selling these cars in my area, not a good sign. Maybe because it is outdoor season?

Yeah most people bring out the 1/8 scale stuff for outdoor season. Seems like 1/10 scale is going strong in my area though. We have a class just for mini truggy and it's a blast. They handle excellent on dirt. Just like a 1/10 4x4 buggy but more forgiving. Seems to be more popular than the 4x4 sct now.

I don't need a fan for it. It is around 115* with a 19 pinion. Just ordered a 21 pinion. I am using 32p 5mm bore pinions.
