Build Thread My Slash 2wd build 2.0

[paytonimusrex]

I wish I had my slash with me so I could show it off, I have a discontinued lcg chassis on it from proline, I might be wrong but I think I turned my slash into basically the proline pro 2 truck with all the parts I had on it lol

New tires - ProLine Hyrax SCXLs, thanks to @Serea71
Jeez, look at these. Compared to normal SCT tires. Gonna be lit. Just gonna get new wheels. Most likely traxxas spoke wheels, rear offsets on all 4 and ill get RPM front compensating offset arms.

Talked to the uncle and he said its not worth it trying to race it. And I agree with that. So not planning on getting carpet tires for the season. Mainly gonna leave it a basher. Especially with this new wheel/tire combo. Gonna have to raise up the body mounts which is fine. But should actually go and drive pretty well through the grass now!

Also, the race slicks are de racing TLR offset wheels, which I think its 0 offset, and look how "in" the wheels are. Could possibly be my issue with not going faster around the turns on track.

 

[luke66]

Those look prettttttty sick!

 

[DavidB1126]

Took it on the track yesterday. Pretty fun as a track basher. No way it can keep up with other SCTs. But does the oval layout pretty good. Can keep up on the straight but in the turns I get gapped by the other SCTs. If I come out of the sweeper and if grip is high and if I do full throttle I can wheelie down the whole straight lol.

MM.

 

[DavidB1126]

New RPM Bulkhead and offset front arms. the +3mm width does make it more wide. Obviously Should help out since I am using TLR SCTE offset wheels for my clay slicks, and I use all 4 rear offsets for my anaconda sets, and my future set for these new prolines. New wheels should be here Saturday. Don't mind the totally off camber and toe, Ill adjust that later lol.

 

[DavidB1126]

Oh yea. Got new lipos. CHNL 6600 2s 120C packs. Ole SMCs going to staples

Ill eventually set camber and toe on all of my cars some point. Probably when I am at the most bored

 

[paytonimusrex]

I even have a a camber gauge for it lmao

 

[DavidB1126]

I do too. Rarely do I ever use it

 

[Lostinthewoods86]

That algebra is paying off buddy!

My car hates having perfect toe and camber. I used the gauges and somehow it still off!
