yup its a proline Slipstream for the ERevo,,its a left over rattle can paint job,,something I can see when it gets a little dark at the track!

yea i should get a new body but i still have 2 stock ones .The one i run the other night and a never run one that i have to trash befor i can buy another

we are heading out to evolution today my brother and i and maybe ray. we plan on leaving at about 8 or so. mtrucker you should bring that revo out. should be a good day of racing i havent been out there for a while.

yea hope you guys all have fun ill be sitting home wishing i was there with you

Well I ran a few laps of practice at EVOLUTION with the Revo,,broke a shock end that i new was a little soft ,couldnt find a replacement in time so I didnt run it, but from what I can tell I will be toning the power down ALOT MORE! I'm going to take the top end out a few cliks and completely re curve it,, the center diff is staying,If I can just get the power managable then the FUN fine tuning will come into play,, oh yeah and that Evolution raceway is a fun track to race on!!

Well I have a center diff that I got for free. It started out as a center diff for 19.99 free shipping. It got here and did not work some of the plastic housing was srtiped away from somthing being messed up in side so I sent it back to the guy and he gave me a full refound . Well he took it apart and said there is nothing wrong with it Ill send it back to you and you can have it for free.I got looking at it and I see the diff cup is the same as the front and rear diff. One problem I dont have a E-revo style diff cup but I did have a nitro diff cup and I used that to rebuild it. The thing works great now and was free. The only problem I have right now is 100k thats in it is way to thin 500K will be in it soon.

you will want 500k min I been messin around with my center dif and different power settings and gear ratios,I think im pretty close, at this point I have a 3.11 ratio,from what I have learned testing any gear ratio higher than 2.99(2.56-2.77-2.99) its going to either diff out with the center diff or wheelie without it,,thats with the lowest possible power settings, 18-56 the truck is still VERY fast but very drivable and its not diffing out to the front too much,,just at the very top of the throttle,,different springs-oil combo,,vari#2s with 60wt oil gold and orange springs,silver swaybars,extended rear arms(in the 19mm position)40mm front ride height--46mm rear ride height, tomorow we are going to Evolution again and since its a bit smaller track I'm running 0 offset bowtie LPRs instead of the 1/2 offsets

yea I have 60wt shock oil in stock shocks with silver and blue springs till next week then Ill have VR shocks . Im running true track rear. I have center diff with soon to be 500K and am running 18/54 but have a 21tooth in the mail.I also have a hitec HRS5995T with over 300oz

My settings on the castle are 70% punch and and timming is set at 0 my brake is set at 50%


sway bars are cooming soon but I keep reading that tekno are the best any feed back on this would be a big help

I looked at both swaybars tekno and traxxas, I like the traxxas rear but I like the short design of the tekno fronts,,I ended up going with the traxxas I seriously dont think you will need the 21 pinion unless your just bashing then it wouldnt matter

yea i did not think i would need it but ray is runing 21/56 and says it made his much better im just testing it out plus my friend has a 19 he said i could have i was going to try that to

You are right i dont think i need it cause the 18/54 i have now is crazy fast but still little tomuch snap hopping the 21 tooth will give me less snap

hay ray you win or loose tonight lol

11th to 3rd just needed a few more laps

My set up is a little different and probably wouldn't be much help, but here it is.
Its a 3.3 chassis
Tekno conversion kit
MGM 16018 esc
Neu 15151y (2200kv) (the hand made version)
4s 40c 6000mah
Mechanical brake
Nitro clutch bell 15t(conversion)
34t spur (stock slipper clutch)
2 speed tranny locked in 2nd gear
single servo (Hitec TG)
Aluminum everything
HPI nubz (pre mounts)
50wt shock oil all around
blue rear green front springs

No thadont help any but its still cool and good info. I hope you come to the race on the 23ed i would like to see it
