Did the final alignment today. -1.5° camber and 1° toe out. Not gonna get to Pit Stop this weekend like I hoped but next Friday is a definite. I have a tire break in tool coming Thursday or Friday and the 13.5 motor will be coming Friday as well. I’ll probably bring it to a local baseball...

Thanks! Since this has more or less turned into a build thread I’ll post this here. Car is done! Almost… So I was planning to paint it a different color entirely, but I misread the eta on the package with the paint. Thought it was coming tomorrow but it was actually next Tuesday. I intend...

Awesome tip! I was running into this issue but didn’t have time to look into it further. I will definitely check closely. Waiting on some paint and the actual motor that will be going in. I had a castle 540 motor in it but decided it needed a proper 13.5. Got a Trinity “Slot Machine.” I should...

I’ve been going bag by bag spreading it out and then organizing all the screws and turnbuckles etc. by length. Makes each step go really quickly. Hoping to get back into it tonight I’d like to get at least all the electronics mounted and tires glued. I’ll do all the wiring in between coats on...

Started digging into it tonight. Only problem I found so far was one of the diff screws for the center diff never got the hex broached into it. (Think of a nail with M2.5 threads 😂) I dug a suitable replacement out of the cup-o-spares. So far a super smooth assembly. I called it quits at Bag 11...

Actually one just opened a little more than halfway between me a the dirt track. Haven’t been yet as it’s set up for on road currently. I’m following their FB though. Whenever they get the jumps built I’ll definitely be going to check it out. The carpet track I ran at was in upstate NY. So like...

Thanks. My biggest hurdle is distance. My closest outdoor track is an hour and a half away, so mid week practice sessions are a challenge. I really need to get out there for a few good sessions. I try to drive at least once a week, usually a parking lot with a mini auto cross track setup with...

Thanks for all the replies. I decided to go with the .1. My reasoning is I already have all the peripherals except wheels and tires. It’s a super low budget upgrade. I ran at a carpet track for the first time with the RB10 last weekend and it was soooo much more enjoyable than the dirt with...

I’m thinking about moving up from my RB10 to a 4wd buggy. I’m still pretty green as a racer, In your opinion are the changes between the .1 & .2 worth the extra $200 for someone who isn’t a top tier driver? Edit to add: since the season is coming to a close in a little while, would it be better...
