    Great driving, Josh. Do you think you will try the radiomaster gyro for rear steer so you can cut down time on rear steer adjustment? There appeared to be some time taken to get the rear steer to the desired angle from time to time in the runs.

    Was it killin' you, Josh, just knowing that that scale metal cage was raising that CG by a few thousandths? And you instructed Matt to use his winch to suck it down, but you didn't use/run one. Was that to keep weight low?

    • @HarleyDesignsInc
      @HarleyDesignsInc  14 днів тому +2

      One thing I love about WE RC ROCK is that their is a minimum weight of 7lbs and the metal cage is required unless you want a healthy penalty. I love buggies so much that I never thought once about the weight penalty! I had matt use his suck down winch on this truck because of the height of the leaf springs. This truck rides at nearly full compression already, so there wouldn't have been a use for the suck down winch.

    I'm curious here- all crawling competitions seem to be courses setup that no one gets to practice on and of course I understand the rationale, but do y'all think that introducing some limited amount of practice time could open up new varieties of competition?

    • @HarleyDesignsInc
      @HarleyDesignsInc  14 днів тому +2

      I don't, even just the opportunity to run on a course for 2 or 3 mins before a course would totally alter the results and make everything much easier. It would reward drivers more who weren't able to think on their feet as well, which I feel is an important aspect of comping.
