Just realized I didn't read the previous pages of this thread. Looks like you did a Revo conversion. I thought you had an E-Revo like me. On the E-Revo, the Traxxas wheelie bar is removeable without tools, and it has several height adjustments, so you can almost tuck it up out of the way or just remove it for racing. Not sure if it will fit the original Revo. If I wasn't so lazy I'd get up and find my Revo to see if it would fit...but I'm beat!

What kind of speed you getting out of that combo? I just did a speed run today and hit 61.7MPH...first time getting over 60 I just hope I NEVER hit anything at that speed!

Oh, by the way, I changed tires to get rid of the balooning. I went with:

Proline Road Rage 40 series tires stretched over HPI wheels:

They were difficult to mount because they are not made for each other, but the result is a super low profile tire. I glued it twice to make sure. They have been tested up to 61.7MPH.
