So I've been racing at J & S Hobbies in Western Washington lately. Pretty new to the game, starting with a Turnigy brand 8th scale buggy that did surprisingly well but the motor didn't hold up and adjustments were fairly limited. I decided to buy a truggy from one of the posters here, an Ofna X1. This thing is great, and I'm getting a lot of practice in on the rare occasion that I have a day off that lines up with a day that it's sunny.
The track is medium-hard packed with some soft spots. It is typically a bit "wet" in the morning, then loosens and dries out around noon. For this reason I want to pick at least two good starting sets so I can start dialing this thing in. It's currently wearing a set of Proline Crime Fighters that I need to replace the ruined foams in. They seem to do just fine all around but appear to be better suited for the mornings when the ground is a bit more held together. I plan to simply replace the foams in these with some closed cells from sweep racing, where I plan to pick up a second set of premounts for the dryer days. Currently looking at the exagons strictly for when the ground is perfectly dry. Thoughts?
