SC10 4x4 Thread

So after seeing Marcus' type of slipper discs, I decided to try it on my own before making an upgrade to the slipper.
I had some spare perfboard laying around from the last project I did, and decided to build a slipper.
It's made out of epoxy cast fiberglass, cut with a cutter and a pair of pliers, and drilled with the help of Dad's fellow Makita (12 y o now, but still like new):


It works GREAT. The truck doesn't wheelie, but the post-corner throttle has skyrocketed, acceleration has increased a crapload, and it's overall much faster. With the spring set at a more loose setting.
Marcus, can you PM me the price+shipping to 17600 Spain, please? Yours MUST be better than mines, and that means they'll be even more impressive. DO WANT THEM

I have friends who went to the ROAR Nats and the rules say you can do a lot of things in "Mod" class... My friend was saying that the Team SC10 4x4's had some "Not available" aftermarket items on them...

RC's truck has saddle packs and a carbon fiber tube brace going from the top of the motor area to the front mount. A fan the blows on the motor through a hole cut in the chassis. Not sure of the drivetrain but I am sure there is some kind if slipper fix they are running. Orion has a new 550 motor they are all running so I am sure that helped everyone go faster.

Sounds just like the same truck Kinwald was running. He said they were passing it around. It's pinned.

Marcus, can you PM me the price+shipping to 17600 Spain, please? Yours MUST be better than mines, and that means they'll be even more impressive. DO WANT THEM
