I run at Pegasus Hobbies in Monclair CA. We normally get around 15 trucks (sometimes more, more times less). For a couple weeks before the Traxxas race, we were getting a spec and mod class turn out. I ran "mod" class with a 27T stocker, I had my Mamba in there....way too much to race with. I have a set of JC Goosebumps glued up to stock wheels for the rear, and Losi Directionals on the front, as well as a set of bone stockers. All using stock Traxxas wheels. Best trick I have found is to more the rear camber link to the top hole, it requires a bit of shaving on the rear tower, seems to give better side bite. Changes the roll center. I went to the Traxxas big bore shocks, and wow, they are smooth awesome performers. My truck jumps really sweet using them. The one thing I did end up doing was running a 3X30mm screw from the back of the shock tower to attach the shocks. The stock step screws kept backing out after a 5 minute run.
Other than that, be smooth, keep up your momentum and HAVE A BLAST.
Couple more thread stealing photos:
