Ta mate, I'll give that a go, I'll just slowly make each difference one at a time as I do it.
I think one of the other blokes had the X2000's and said they were decent but lacked a little sidebite, could be a setup issue aswell as he has only ran the buggy a couple of times.
I had the calibers running really sweet while practicing once, aslong as I stayed on the clean line but I went back for more practice about 2 days later and were just horrible, thats been my general experience with them too, one moment they are great then the next your worst nightmare.
I think the blocks/pins are too close to each other aswell.
I'm keen to give the Losi tyres a go and the Rebars.
The Goosebumps might have been a little better if I could find something that is NOT the green compound.
These pics give a decent idea as to what the track is like.
At the moment we have just one jump but have a couple of others ready to put on (not permanent at the moment).
You are correct that I am running no boost but I am running 32° timing, with no timing the motor felt dead, no speed at all and any more timing doesnt seem to make much difference, it does run pretty cool though, about 55° after the 10 min final.
I am going to get a couple of bigger pinions in my next order.
I may eventually get the Duo3 17.5.
Just about to take a gander on Rctech.
