Cap'n-thanks, yes I ran it, it runs like a dream! I cannot believe the difference the racer x makes! I really like the set backs, it seems to really put the power down along with the slipperential! It won't even bring the tires up off the ground, it sticks like glue!

GM360-took some time, some work, thanks!

Syl-Yeah, I have the stickers, jsut have not put them on yet :P

Mike L-thanks man! Some mistakes in it, but you can't see them :P

Thanks guys! I'll get some pics of it when the body is totally complete and mounted.

Well how can you say the racer x is the big improvement.
You changed arms as well as went to the slipperntial.
You also made the truck longer as well.
All that together makes a difference in the way a truck handles.


Peace!

Leroy - I stated all the combos...made the difference, but I think the Racer X helps A LOT TOO. Or am I wrong?

I think that the slipperential helps stick it to the ground as far as traction, but the suspension makes it handle.

They both help in different ways.

Newe,

Does the slipperential have any unusual feel or behavior to it? Or does it just help keep the truck "glued" to the track?

If you are used to a tranny, it makes a big difference, but I think, at least for me, it's very easy to control and get used to. But I wouldn't say that it is "unusual". It adds a lot to the way the truck handles as the front tires work almost as much as the rear. Make sense?

Yes, makes sense.

I'd like to drive one with the slipperential and check it out.
