Motor

Putnam tuned trinity duo with a 2.60 rollout

You can run less front traction and less glue, but I found a little more corner speed doing it this way. At club race grip levels I ran less traction and less glue. Dont try to run that much traction unless you have the front glued all the way up, I tried, it wasn't pretty.

Very little dual rate, used more than 3/4 or the lane to do a u-turn

I ran a JR 3550 servo and it seems plenty strong enough for these bigger cars.

The car was easy and fun to drive.
