If you want to widen the car's track, the AE graphite hexes work fine. Weigh less than the aluminum ones. Need to use low profile lock nuts to just catch the end of of the axle threads with the nylon locking material.

I was more testing to find a carpet setup for winter racing at Stockton. Was totally surprised that the basic Josh Numan asphalt setup ended up being my preferred settings. I did have the front springs at 12.5# though.

Otherwise, Aaron Young (our local hotshot) in Stock and 19T showed us something completely different at Ripon asphalt last night. He had the double one-way setup (with no BK/PK brackets) on his JRX-S. I now intend to put both one-ways on my second car and go back to Gilroy for another test session.

Tell me if you end up coming to Gilroy. The Gilroy course configuration was just changed on Saturday. Tom and Nick keep coming up with great track layouts.

Yeti,

With the level of drivers entered, I would be fighting to stay out of last place at LV. NorCal will certainly have many of our best drivers there to represent us in TC and 1/12th.

I might just get myself down there to spectate for a couple days. Gotta root for Team Losi guys and see one of Matt's last races!

Thanks for asking.

No matter what car it is I have always liked a double oneway. I only wish my car offered it. The car seems smoother with dual oneways IMO

Yes, Aaron proved the potential of the double oneway last night. Did you use it on carpet too?

And you COULD just get a JRX-S amigo!

When using 2 orings above the bladder in the shocks should the shaft compress all the way?

I ran the double oneways on carpet when I ran the Yokomo. The car was sort of twitchy with a front oneway only but everything came together with a center oneway. Me getting a JRX will never happen. Schumacher has treated me way too well to ever leave and the car working killer is also a huge plus.

I just want to say congrats to Xavier on his win in 19t and 2nd place finish in stock this weekend at The Colesium in Frederick MD. Man that Losi was fast.

Thanks for helping me and my buddy out with our cars, my car finally started to feel pretty good, too bad it was after all the qualifing was over. I hope you can make it down to Debbies sometime in the near future. Later, Rob.
