Thanks for the help guys ![]() My brakes set-up correctly, because I like to roll the car at few places so I take care of it. My shocks: a bit lighter than US Standard setup, X-500 1.4 Dark Blue, X-400 1.5 Light Blue (all straight holes) 4mm spacers front and 6mm rear. The car jumps really nice, but the problem is the uphill section of the jump is extremly blow out so I have an extremly narrow range where I can make this triple successfully. So this is why I thought to change the setup to have better accuracy. Anyway this is the same problem on other jumps of the track. I can make it nicely, but only with perfect preparation. Do you agree with the change? And last if any of you thinking to switch or not, go for XB8TQ you won't repent of purchase, this car has awesome quality, durability and performance. |

I would say add some spacers to your shocks. If the track is bumpy, it may benefit from a little higher ride height, and make the car a little easier to jump. It only takes two seconds to add or remove them!! My track is really blown out as well, and i feel i benefited from the added spacers. Also, i tried the dark blue front, light blue rear combo, and i felt it was too stiff for a bumpy track, cause it caused the car to get tossed around in the rough stuff. Th suspension was not soaking up the bumps. When i went to light blue front and whites in the rear, it allowed the suspension to work a little more freely, and ws better in the bumps. I think darkblue/light blue combo is better for smoother tracks IMOA. |

I run 60wt Trinity oil in the front with 1.5's. 50wt in the rear with 1.5's (all straight hole pistons). I just changed to 1.4 up front with 40 wt AE; 35 wt AE in the rear. Have to see how it feels this weekend. -Adam |
