i got mine going yesterday. track was a little damp and thin sandy layer. slippery to say the least.
i was using old tires which didn't help but i was very satisfied with the car. no major dramas from the mid-conversion chassis. i felt more able to push it through the turns, just like my x6^2.
i took my time to build it making sure all parts & screws fit, as per build instructions, therefore took longer than expected. (looking after a 4y.o and carrying a 2month old in a baby carrier whilst trying to balance cooking & car-wrenching don't help either)
1 thing i noticed though, my diff was really noisy. is that normal?
do u guys run 2x SP idlers or 1xSP + 1x stock idler?
i'm running mine with both SP idlers. diff was built using kyosho clear diff oil/grease.
very happy with the quality of the build. it's fantastic!
can't wait to have more run time.
