FZRC (Sarasota, FL)
SC10
They had just rebuilt the track, surface was just a bit soft, even after they ran a packer over the surface.
So the surface wasn't up to handling the power of the LRP 7.5 motor!!!!!
XXX-SCT
Had put a Speed Passion Inspire 2.0 esc and a Reedy 3300 motor to test race at HMIRCR. Thought perhaps that this maybe just the ticket for the track surface.
Had AKA Cityblocks on the front and Duratrax Posse on the rear,this worked for 1 and 3/4 qual's. Track was starting to groove up and the Posse wasn't up to the job. Put Proline Calibers on the rear, MUCH better.
Was looking at the XXX-SCT and remembered that I had moved the rear shock in one hole at the top mount. So, I moved the shocks in another hole, hoping to get a bit more side bite in the corners.
During the qual's the XXX-SCT had a bit of a push in the sweeper turns. Now the XXX-SCT was just off the pipes in the turns!!! That is just SWEEEEET!!!!!!!!!!!
First ONLY lapped me once!!! :-) Finished 2nd AND mostly it was a FUN day!!!
