Specpoint gets some great reviews. Thanks.
I don't race, I bash at an relatively unused, but groomed, church softball field. Only in the grass in late fall and early spring, otherwise I run on the dirt/dust/mud depending on rainfall.

Saw the signature....figured you were a nice guy in spite of that !!
We had a 90 Mustang, 347, carbed, PA auto with trans brake. We bracket raced at Gateway. Ran low 11's. We likely could have...
Billy bones- thanks. I should be good now. I assembled with blue locktite and greased them at install as instructions show. I have 2 stock transmissions so I can swap in a freshly serviced one...
Orca44, I have a set of those boots. I'll do the axle flip and add the boots. We spend 2 months in florida near port st joe (white sandy beaches) and I love to run the raptor on the sand. I never...
Thanks all. To Rag6 and the good doctor, I will flip the stock shafts tonight. Since I already have MIP's on it, those stockers will still be an excellent backup. I do adjust the slipper based on...
My bashing track is an old baseball field. In dry weather it is very dusty. Very. I find that after 2 packs, the slip joint on the stock shafts are bound up with dirt. They just won't slide. I...
Brushless, MIP driveshafts, rpm control arms.

My trans/driveshaft output bearing was reduced to less than that before I caught it. In one battery pack I went to fine to wobbly to gone. In truth, it was obviously not fine for sometime. When I...
Just fried a 4200 nimh today. I noticed it had less power than my other 4200 pack the last couple days. It survived the charger, but when I ran it today one cell got very hot, deforming the label...
I know it can be a pain but I'm here for 2 months. Nothing but sand. The only other thing I've noticed (and planned for) are extra spur gears. The sand is pretty hard on those. But I don't get...
Followed suggestions from folks on the forum about running on sand; installed 32p gears, added tamiya axle boots to the driveshafts and moved up to the brushless velineon. At home, the raptor runs...
got it. thanks.
Been about 30+ years since I had a 1/10 RC car. Things have surely changed. After much research landed on a new Raptor. Wow, what a hoot. My "track" is a church lot very close to the house with a...
