Yeah, that's the spirit!
Drive it! |
They look nice on the shelf. They look better while the dirt is being throwed from under the tires. You have more fun driving than looking at it.
|
nice super extended Gmaxx
how does it handle?? love your truck glad to see its straight |
It handles so good that I don't think i go back to a regular gmaxx. I go hillclimbing some. Don't worry about the truck flipping over. It don't wheelie much though. It pick the front tires up a little but not like it used to.
|
Wheelies.. Who needs them anyways..
With a 16-18 cells setup, you are happy when the front wheels stay on the ground.. Wheelie means less power to be put to the ground for launch.. So .. Wheelie=BAD.... (lesson two in take off) IMO you need a truck that launches so fast, than once you puchned the throttle, it should be at the horizon.. Not showing his upsidedowndriveability.. (is that even a word??!) |
You got a good point in that serum. Front wheels in air is bad. I has a good holeshot(aka take off). Not only that it used to piss me off when i pulled the trigger to hard. Then had to go get the truck back on it's wheels. Seems like my truck stays flatter when you jump it. It used to rock some. Now it seems to stay parralel with the ground.
|
Does any body have suggestions on the best setup for the chamber caster and toe front and back both need to be set.
|
hey 2wd sometimes help in jumping
well for me i was jumping my maxx when it was 2wd since the center shafts twisted and broke off when it was 2wd it was nose heavy |
Mine don't seem to be nose heavy nor rear heavy. I seems like it flys like it has wings. I has been about 7-8 feet in the air. Lands like perfect. I wish I would have done some of the stuff done now along time ago. I am happy with truck. Just need to adjust that alignment.
|
oh i made a mistake on the earlier post didnt realize till now
i mean it WASNT nose heavy when it was 2wd |
Okay. If you let off the gas all the way. The back drag of the motor with a low gearing will slow the tires down and twist the truck. If you know what i mean. But it's all good there shadow. Don't worry I have stocker here with the shafts twisted up in it. Haven't broke but one wheel one. I have some rd logics and mip centers to put in it. Took of the other truck. I can say that the ue shafts seem to be a lot better built for a little more money.

I run as little castor as possible on my g-maxxes for maximum steering (all the clips to the front). With a longer chassis, you don't need a lot of toe, either. I like 0 degrees toe in the front(straight) and abvout 1-2 degrees in the rear. -1degree camber all around. Give it a shot and see how you like it.
|
Mike for maxxium caster should'nt you put the clips in the back. Thats what i've always been told.
|
Yes. More castor = less steering on the maxx, though. As little castor as possible = clips all the way to the front.
|
Is that 1-2 degrees out in the front of the rear tires. I just want to make sure. I have to change the caster in front the toe is set right in front Now. I thought it drove good with out having an alignment. :lol
