Yeah, you are right Problem solved, in meantime I've balanced car and so on No its pretty nice, but sometimes back slides a little too much, I know it is "Losi way" of getting through the corners, but which steps to reduce it? Other case is, that sometimes me or one of my friends with xxx-s burn difs.. What is the cause? A clean, fresh diff where balls cut the wheel inside after some hard driving? Is it the grease? Or too loose?

Quick question,

If i'm using the blue "LOSA3954 128T 64P Spur w/Drive Pulley:XXX-S "

Do i need to change my pinion gear to a 64P instead of the one that comes stock on the rtr xxxs?

Let me know, thanks

Wible,

If you run a 64P spur then you will have to run a 64P pinion as well.

Alright thanks. So far I Don't really know much about this stuff

What ill be using:

128T 64P Spur w/Drive Pulley
PINION GEAR 64 PITCH 28T
Novak EX13.5 Extreme Sport Brushless Motor

Will that be fine? I was reading about people using wrong gearing and burning up their motors...

Let me know whenever,

Thanks

The 28 pinion sounds kind of small for the 13.5, but that won't hurt the motor, you just will be slower than you might with a bigger pinion.

I'm not certain you'll be able to get a sufficiently large pinion in the XXX-S with the 128 spur, but I could be wrong...

Yeah, for the large spur gear, you probably won't be able to fit a large enough pinion on there.

I haven't run a 13.5, but I did run a 10.5 with a 39T and 108 spur gear. It still didn't approach over heating. I would start at a 45T for the 13.5, depending on track size.

Any idea for the gearing or best springs to use for :

"The track is 100' by 47' of tennis grade asphalt with no seams, this track is smooth as glass and very high bite."

Any other mods suggested?

I really like to race this car. Not sure exactly why but it was one of my favorite high end touring cars. I still think it is a pretty cool car.
