    • @HookedUpRacing2024
      @HookedUpRacing2024 Місяць тому

      I’m on dirt, indoor sealed clay. I noticed there’s zero setup sheets for the 24 truck on the Xray site, so I’ll start with kit settings for dirt and work my way toward something that works better (if it does) and I’ll post it in a month or two. I’m assuming a lot of the common buggy changes might translate to the truck as well so that’ll be my starting point probably.

      @MX-CO it depends on your driving skill level. If you're intermediate privateer. I would go with xray. If you're club racer and alot of people at your track has team associated, go with the b7 or b6.4 I always recommend go new, and get the experience of a kit build. That's just me though. I hope it was kinda helpful. I really appreciate you turning in.

    @fuzzfreak1967 3 місяці тому

    I don’t know about you Jason but I like a more locked down car, it’s just more predictable, reliable, consistent for me and how I drive. The fast guys I have been seeing lately at the tracks I go to, they are all slipping and sliding, wheels spinning through the turns and their front wheels are constantly turning left to right keeping them going in the right direction, I can’t do that stuff, it must be the fast way though, there winning. Anyway, I run as much front/rear droop as possible. Droop doesn’t just effect front to rear weight transfer, it also affects how much your car leans in the corners. Something I just did at my last race was I lowered my total ride height 1 mm, and wow; I couldn’t believe how much more side bite I had. It’s because I had more droop when I lowered the ride height and the car was able to lean more in the turns and transfer more weight. I don’t think I would shorten up my droop unless I was to lower my ride height excessively, or maybe if it was a high bite track. Plus the more droop you remove, that’s less jump landing soaking up your car has. On my indoor 1/10 scale 2 and 4 wheel drive cars I have been experimenting with reducing the rear droop only just to get better breaking strength in the cars and it’s definitely been helping with that

    • @rcvitals
      @rcvitals 3 місяці тому

      @fuzzfreak1967 Same here, I like more of locked down car. It's just to me 8th scale driving seems different from 10th scale driving. It's a learning curve still for me. Next I'm experiment with pistons.

    • @fuzzfreak1967
      @fuzzfreak1967 3 місяці тому

      @@rcvitals try some different shock springs if you can or different shock mounting locations too if you don’t have any different springs. Another thing I have done is put stiffer springs on my car and stood the shocks up, it’s amazing the difference I got from doing that. Softer springs or a softer shock location doesn’t always equal more grip, you can actually be too soft already and that’s why you don’t have much grip. Think of it this way, a stiffer spring pushes the tire harder and sooner into the ground than a soft spring, the car has to lean more with a soft spring to achieve the same pressure on the tire versus a harder spring. Same with the shock mounting angle. A more leaned over shock is softer overall and the car needs to lean over more to put pressure into the tire versus a stood up shock which is overall stiffer and puts pressure into the tire quickly. It’s all trial and error really, if you have the time, experiment with this stuff. Remember too, there is a little optimum window with all the adjustments an RC car has, you can always go or be too far in one direction. When I go to a track, I focus on getting my car hooked up the way I like it before I just keep doing laps to learn the layout. Good luck 👍

    What I have learned is that when it gets hot, I like a hard compound like a clay ss or sslw in the morning I like to run soft or supersoft. I find when running soft tires when it is really hot the tires stick while your buggy is trying to keep going causing a weird situation. Lol cool video, I bought a set if those same tires and n3ver used them because I put them in some old.rims that I had painted white (they were all scuffed up) and the glue only attached to the paint and they came off in short order. Lol but I think they would do ok for a beginner, or maybe an indoor arena track like PNB, where the dirt is loamy and soft even in the groove. 👍 I ended up going to turn and burn, and it is an awesome track, they made it bigger, and the new layout is so fun!!

    TLR having gotten rid of most of its racing platforms is on a no buy list for many racers that I know. Having owned many and currently own the 22x-4 elite and 22 DC elite, they will be the last vehicles I buy from TLR.

      I just see them focusing their effort in other directions. But it's been awhile where the other companies have caught or passed them. I'm speaking in 10th scale. But in 8th scale the 2.0 is really good car. I'm not a 8th scale guy, but when I do run my ebuggy i'm like 2 and 3 seconds off the fast guys who do every weekend.

    I hear you guys, I have been using the same clay slicks on my cars for a very long time. I don’t have a lot of cash so I use my tires till the inserts are whipped. Right now the 4 wd buggy tires still seem good but my 1/10 Truggy tires, the foams are getting a little weak I would say. I am actually thinking about doing the acetone thing on them and putting new foams in them and gluing them back up again, the tires don’t really seem stretched out; have you guys ever done that?

    • @rcvitals
      @rcvitals 6 місяців тому

      Or instead of using acetone. Just take a exacto and cut around the bead of the tire. Take the old foam out, and put new foam in. Then superglue around the bead of the tire. I've done that before.

    Nice video, thanks. I just started going to another indoor dirt track and they use super soft slicks there. I was thinking about getting some new S.S. Slicks but I think I might just sand down some M4 Electrons I have and say goodbye to all the indoor treaded tires I have for all of my cars. They don’t really get used anymore anyway. Indoor dirt tracks are pretty much slicks everywhere now. Question, does the sandpaper last a long time? I got a lot of tires to sand

    • @rcvitals
      @rcvitals 6 місяців тому

      Mine does I still got the same sander with same sandpaper on it. As far as sanding electrons down. Do it, if that's what you got, then do it. Till you figure out what's the best tire for that track and saucing ritual for that track. Thank you soo much 🙏
