Amain, LefthanderRC and PRS all have them in stock.

what tires is everyone useing for the ft t4.1 on a indoor clay track?

Slicks...

Hmmm those larger pinions with the machined holes would be very nice for spec class racing! Less rotating mass

Jconcepts Barcodes, Gold Compound

Proline Suburbs, MC (Clay) Compound

Either one, Jconcepts is a little better because they have different 'Y' sizes along the sides so you can choose how to mount them. This is from the website from a team driver:

"I prefer to mount them with the big connected Y to the outside for normalblue and black groove conditions. If the track has a lot of rubber on it or extremely high grip I would look at running them the other direction"

From my experience:

Soft, wet clay... Pink slicks

Med, damp clay... Panther Switch, Losi BK Bars, Pro-Line Suburbs... All pink compound

Hard, dry clay... JConcepts Barcodes gold compound

Very hard, very dry clay... Pink slicks with hard inserts


Of course tire selection will vary from track to track... theres quite a few factors...

The key is to balance traction front/rear... be careful not to get too agressive of a front tire or it'll feel like it wants to spin out everywhere making it hard to drive.

What MAH/C rating is everyone running in their trucks? I'm running mod with 5400/25C's and I'm about to pick up some 5200/50C's.

I'm just curious if anyone here is running a Proline Bulldog body. What do you think of it? Any mounted pics? Thanks

Check a few pages back

The pink and blue one? Looking for a less obstructed view. Plus it's on a t4 chassis

There's a green one someone posted, but its on a t4 chassis as well.

didn't see it, have a post number?

Anybody running a 17.5 orion with a timing advance speedo? Trying to get an idea on where to start for gearing...was thinking about 36/72 or 35-36/69. Thanks!

I think you are going the wrong direction on the gearing. Non-timing you go up on the pinion, but with timing you gear more like a mod motor and drop teeth. I was running my RS with 45* timing, and 28/72. Now with timing off mode, and 10* on the motor I run 33/72.

This is how I understand it too.
