This past weekend Ronnie and I went
to the SIGP in Tucson, AZ (Track: clay, super hi-bite, smooth).
Ronnie ran the same
exact set-up he ran at the Cactus (PDF).
Since Li-Po is getting more and more
popular, I have started testing with our 3600 Race Spec Li-Po and
the RB5 without adding any extra weight.
By the end of the weekend, my car was
really good. The track at Competition Hobbies was super hooked up
and we ran Losi Silver Taperpins belt sanded down into slicks with
Trinity Blue Bomb 1 Foam.
