Is that your truck jhautz? What spur gear are you running on the slipperential? What is a good setup for shocks? The stock setup seems really light!

I'm running 46T slipperential, a 1550 tekin motor and 5s. 15T pinion for small tracks and 16T for big tracks. Ive been stuck on this motor battery combo for a long time now. It just works so nice I cant bring myself to bother with trying oher setups.

I actuially like the light stock shock setup if its a rough track. For smoother/higher traction surfaces I go up about 5-10wt front and rear and then go 1 spring heavier in the front. (purple I think)

Thanks for the info! I will be running a electronics setup very similar to yours. All that is left to do is paint the body. I can't wait to race this summer!
