[QUOTE=slumlord;5994507]Drove the truck like I stole it tonight and it held up rather well.

I'm still searching for more rear grip. Thinking about lowering the rear shock oils to 30 and taking the rear diff down to 1k.

What do you guys think?[/QUOTE
just shorten up the rear camber link, very fast and easy change and makes a noticeable difference

Had my first bearing failure .. it was an outer rear.
Now have fitted a whole set on Answer RC bearings.
Went out today and won my local club meeting in Kent .., changed the rear toe to 3' running 5k in the rear and SD in front and center.

LOVE THIS TRUGGIE

So how many degrees of camber are you running on the rear?

I run the same front and center sd and 5k in the rear and a 3-3 rear toe block. I love this setup. How does the 3 deg camber in the fear effect the handlng.

These towers are amazing. They are very stron. And add to the bong factor. Plus no one else has anything like it out there. Good job. I was skeptical at first but after using them for several races I am sold.

its on power, ive had this problem from the start, like its not so bad i can take tight corners fine, but sweepers i have problems, other people will fly by me because i have to tap the throttle so i dont run into pipes or bails. i moved the hubs forward right away, it helped a little, but it needs more. thats all ive done.
