Yokomo 2015 – ROAR 17.5 Touring Cars, 1380g

RSD – Reflex Racing Dynamics is an indoor rc carpet track and home to reflexracingdynamics manufacturing facility. Round 1 of TexasEOS.net 2015 racing series.

50 grams of weight was added, B7-BFW10 front pair and B7-BW30 center. Fluids used for diff and shocks - Team Associated manufactured by Lucas oil. Sauce all around and baked on @ 20C for 3min. before ace. Belts are set pretty loose, 3 clicks from horizontal a front and rear. The shorter arms made a huge difference in corner speed.

Leaking diffs? I think not, the trick is to use DOW 55, product is design to swell and lube orings. I’ve been using this for years during my paintball days. Same technique applies to RC, just apply liberally.
