i have the eight 1.0 t have you tried, the 1/12 wheel hubs if so how much better does it make the 1.0 t handle? i used the stock hubs, and it handle to much like a monster truck lol.


i just put on a pair of the, 1/12 hubs with the 0 offset rims. i could of got the eight -t 2.0 but i wanted , something a bit more challegeing to drive lol.

1/2 inch hubs and zero offset wheels will handle exactly the same as running 1/2 offset wheels. No difference in width or how the suspension works.

Now if you run a longer A-arm like the 2.0 truck does you will change how the suspension works(you will have a wider hinge point) and in turn change how the truck handles greatly. Biggest benefits of this are improved rough track handling/bump handling and greater stability.

oh it looks wider though with the, 1/12 hubs wouldnt i notice a diffrence though with them hubs? i would think i can drive harder.

It should be the exact same width. 1/2 inch offset wheel = 1/2 inch offset hub. No handling difference. The math says their shouldn't be a difference and I never felt a difference on the track.

oh i see, well if i got the 2.0 t arms,i would proberty have to get the 2.0 t shock towers and the 2.0 hidge pins and the 2.0 shock shafts right?

Arms, turnbuckles, CVD's, etc... By the time you get to that you might as well just buy a 2.0, especially with the rebate now.

i wish i could do that but i dont, have that kind of money right now lol.
but next year il proberty get a 2.0 t.

i think i can keep up with, the 2.0 t on the track though. depending on my driving.

If you are a really good driver and the person driving the 2.0 is really c@#p then yes you may keep up...they are that far apart...get saving as you wont regret it

You all are going to make me spend money aren't you??? Now if I can just get someone to convince my wife of how important it is to take a second or two off of my lap times I'll be all set.

Could have but didn't ?

yea but im racing in the sportsman truggy class anyways, at club races.

i bought it used from a racer last year, and i already rebuild the warn out parts on it.

I broke a couple parts yesterday in practice that I have never broke before. I busted the CVD right where the pin goes through. Both of the rears snapped in 1/2. !st the left and then the right. The track was not a big air track and I do think these might have been in there for a while. Im just concerned. The only thing I changed is I went to the KHZ alum hub carrier one race ago, but I dont see how that could make a difference. I remember this issue when the trucks 1st came out but anyone still having this issue?

I got a set of the new black brake pads,they are both the same size equal to the rear disc,would i put a smaller one on for the front,or are these designed to just replace the rear brake pads

They changed it to same size front and rear. Since almost everybody runs little to no front bias it makes sense cost-wise to use the same size.
