I was missing rear wheel nuts as well... Not really happy with the build and cheap hardware. However AE has good track support. Buggy does have a lil slop.

hmmmm dunno about 'shiny' is fast.. I heard that black makes everything go faster!! Maybe you should paint everything a glossy black...

As for the slop, its just something you get used to And in my off-road races the slop is nice But yeah, after a few months things need to be tightened up..

Be sure to show us the shecksy paint scheme you come up with! (think glossy black )

Gold pads are better than the white pads IMO.

gold is just as bad as the white . They glaze , don't hold a setting, not consistent....


Heard some of team drivers are even drilling cooling holes on the slipper disks to help with the heat in hopes for better performance ....

For now its make do with what they give us....

I have seen many setups referencing 1 oz or 1.5 oz rear weight in front of arms... I found the ae weight and it is .60 oz

what are people using for this... seems like a tight fit for regular 1/4 oz weights...

Two 1/4oz weights fit just nicely right there between the tranny and the front arm mount, and one 1/4oz in each of the rear triangles.

depends on what lead you are using but usually yes on its side so the tape side is facing the toe block and stuck to the block sort of thing. Larger squares dont always fit well, but smaller AE or Greatplanes weight should fit in there fine

Yep, thats what I used, two of the smaller AE squares on their sides, pealed the tape off and Shoe Gooed them in place, nice snug fit.
