deciding whether to race or not

[rockrc355]

What other classes do u guys race? Anything 1/10th scale? Short course? 2wd?

[TMS Racing]

yes they race sc trucks

Short Course is AWESOME! That's what I race when I'm just running electric. If we have enough SC's show up, we'll run a race for them! Come on out for the August 22nd race!

i hope i can come out but at the moment im unsure. Currently i only have my lightning stadium sport. Can anyone recommend any hop up ideas or websites i could look at?

[bbecker]

Don't know that stadium truck..

But come out... You can run with the SC trucks. Its usually very casual here and we just have a great time....

that's the hotbodies truck; that is really a truggy platform and the best upgrades you could make would be lipo receiver pack, faster steering servo, tires, and other things that make it more durable or handle better. if the diffs don't have oil in them (as they sometimes just have grease from the factory) set-up your diffs with oil in them which will help your overall handling on the track. otherwise check out online forums for that truck if you can find any and see what other people are doing or saying about/with that truck.

www.truggyracers.com used to be a good forum, but i'm not sure it's still up..

thanks and i checked i dont think its still up and would a faster servo be better than one with more torque for steering?

torque for steering and speed for throttle.

[rockrc355]

are .25 engines "legal" to race in the truggy class? or would a .28 be better?

[SWAMPER]

yes they are, most run from a .21 to a .28
