CAT3000 racer.
Hello.
Ive had a Cat 3000 siting in bits for the past couple of years and never thought I'd ever get around to building it till now. While I do own and am happy with my CAT SX I wanted to see if the 3000 will go the distance on my local race tracks.
I have no idea how the car handles as I have only finished the build so Im wondering if anyone has any hints or tips for setting this car up for a loose dirt surface.
Ive fitted a slipper set up and an alloy one way pulley for the front belt which Ive locked out with an optional pin arrangement. This car is a little bit similar to my 501x with regards to motor and battery placement and I have found that car very driveable in the past.
Ok so I usualy run my rear ball diffs adjusted up to the point where they are still smooth but dont slip while the front is set the same but just a little tighter (hoping for a spool type effect here). I usualy run 35wt oil in the front shocks and 30wt in the rear and possibly yellow coils all round. The car is going to run 4200 lipo saddle's and a Speed Passion 10.5 v1.1 if that helps.
My tyre of choice might be Hole Shots or Double Dee's which usualy work well enough here on most Aussie tracks.
Anyone wish to share any opinions on this? Your help would be gratefuly appreciated. Many thanks in advance- Jason.
