- Team X-Factory X60 - Clayton Easley - Starting Setup - 2011 -
Clayton Easley has been driving RC cars for some time. "I remember, the first big race I went to ended up being a ROAR nationals in the late 90's. I was just barely starting out back then, but it was cool talking to and watching the guys I'd read about in the magazines," he told us. "That really got me interested, and minus a few temporary breaks for school and work I've been racing since."
Clayton was one of the first drivers to jump on the X Factory mid-motor bandwagon, getting on the pre-order list for the original X - 6. Originally from Texas, since moving to Colorado in 2009 he's really gotten faster. "I now race regularly at MHOR Raceway in Denver. There are a ton of super-fast guys here, and that's definitely helped me step up my game."
Especially if you're interested in running big bore shocks, Clayton has been experimenting with both Schumacher and the new TLR big bore dampers.
Clayton's X-60 is pretty standard. "My truck is super-dialed. This set-up is so easy to drive, I've run it pretty much everywhere I race with hardly any changes except the notes on the set-up." He actually uses the same suspension parts to run his X-60 and SCX-60 short course truck, depending on which truck he wants to run each weekend.
