    Me & my brother did a bit of local racing back in the 80's & possibly 90's. Some outdoor grass track & indoor carpet also. The main thing I remember is the stress of a brand new shell getting trashed by some aggressive sod! And screaming "MARSHAL" to get my car righted! I don't think I was cut out for it!!!! We only ever used Tamiya's, Boomerang & Super Sabre, so were never going to be fully competitive. The Schumacher CATS of the day were absolutely amazing off road, the best drivers were incredibly respectful & ruthlessly efficient too. Good times.
    All the best to you Phil, & everyone else involved!

      One other thing: fast isn't necessarily faster.....one wipe out and you've negated any lead you got from going faster. Getting the right line around a corner is faster than going around it quicker......

      @@niltonganhao2051 I have NO clue who tuned me into this, go karting? car racing? I dunno but with gearing and throttle, you want to JUST hit your max speed at the point you have to start braking on the straight.
      If you peak too soon? You're geared too low. If you are still accelerating? you're geared too high.
      It makes sense because if you're geared too high, you won't get good acceleration out of the corners too because you'll bog down. If you're geared too low, you might get oversteer and spin out and if you have lots of grip, you'll unweight the front wheels and get understeer.
      But what do I know? I couldn't make it around that track once without wiping out. I have the hand eye coordination of a turnip lol

      Weight
      Weight is key, you’d be surprised on how much weight you can lose with just using different items, screws, bolts for instance
      A car lighter is better than a car making max weight
      The kit issue items are all binned for lighter products.
      Be surprised the time difference per lap and the handling

    Hey Phil, I think in the build video I saw your ESC has a capacitor pack, if you plugged it in backwards you probably only blew the capacitors which are replaceable. It is worth trying to desolder them and trying a new set. I did the same thing to my Hobbywing Max 10 and after new capacitors it was good as new.

    Regarding the shock filling with oil and bleeding you should put the spring retainer on the bottom before compressing to bleed because it will actually be a tiny bit less compression since it's up to 3-5 mm less that it can compress and less oil squirted out. Because obviously under use it can't compress that far .. slightly underfilled shocks just won't work quite right and sooner till they need refilling.

    A suggestion if you put your rear shocks upside down you get some insane searing. I did that to my 6.4 today at the track and it was night and day difference. It makes it to where you are able to transfer the weight in the rear end a lot quicker and lowers the cg down a bit. I am also running 35 in the front and 30 in the rear. it allows for more searing.

    Springs control the stiffness. The fluid in the shock controls the rate of dampening. Thinner fluid will have less dampening but if springs still the same then it will be as stiff. Change springs first to get stiffness needed then check for rebound. If bouncy then thicken the shock fluid until there is a dampening effect and no springing about.

I'm no electronics whiz but I know enough to know that all it would take is 2 diodes...plug in the battery the wrong way and the current wouldn't flow past the diodes (they are directional). NO damage done. Reverse the polarity and voila, done.
