We both ran stock Lazer pistons with 500cst in front and 300cst rear topped off with stock Lazer BB springs! Car felt good and feel it could have gone slightly softer BB springs in rear, but all seemed nice really. Both cars were very agile considering BB's are meant to 'dull down' front end.

My first time running Kyosho shocks and I must say they are very good and completely leak free too

Nice report and a reason why i'm keeping mine!

Core RC oils? I run small bore, but want to try big bore for a "safer" car for me.

Need to get an up to date oil chart. I have most Losi oils with one or two from the core RX selection.

Thanks for kind words Mikey mate yes, core oils for both cars, I think a few up to date oil charts were floating around last few weeks on General Race Chat? I'm thinking of building up some slim bores just to try the orginal spec

Big bores don't have to dumb down the car .... its just a matter of getting the WHOLE setup change right ..... anybody who has driven my lazer will tell you how well that changes direction but to do that the setup is a lot different to what Tony & Kev run
