I run stock gearing... I'm leaning towards the outerwears being the reason as to the slight difference in temperature. I've tested this theory with the outerwears cover on, and with it off. Temps are...
I use outerwares for my slash ONLY when I don't want others to see what trick motor or servo etc im running, other then that, it's overkill for the indoor tracks I race at. I have removed the...
Actually I had adjusted my bellcrank to properly slide however the problem still existed. The problem with metal is, when it heats up, or gets cold its inconsistent, meaning, sometimes it slides,...
I completely disagree. In fact, if you want to buy mine, I'll sell it to you. After breaking two servos I decided to take off the strc bellcrank an put the other one on. The problem with the strc...
I'm having problems keeping the batteries balanced after running my slash for a session. I start the charging process and my charger warns me that my batteries are now unbalanced. Is anyone else...
Well the strc steering bellcrank and c hubs were a bad idea. I broke many servos today because the bellcrank wouldn't give way like it was supposed to. From now experiencing a day of racing, I have...
Indeed it is the RPM front bumper. I decided to use ALL parts that RPM has to offer instead of using aluminum parts (shock towers, body mounts, bumpers, lower a arms and shock mud guards). I feel...
The alignment setup is an integy setup system with a piece of flat aluminum used as a portable leveling table. I love the kit and how easy it makes for adjusting camber and the ability to use other...
Since getting my slash three months ago, it has undergone extensive changes to say the least. I have spent countless hours tuning and upgrading parts from shocks to bodies to bumpers etc. I think I...
I was pretty pumped when I hopped up my first 4x4 slash. I think within 2 weeks I had most upgrades available minus electronics (which are next).
Upgrades include:
Proline flo-tek body (custom...
Any suggestions as to what tools you racers use to tune your race slashes? I'm looking to get some setup tools and am unsure what ones to get, and what ones work best. Any opinions would be...
Does no one have any tools they use to set up their rc racers? It's been weeks since I've asked a question about setup tools and nothing. There must be someone out there that actually uses tools to...
But aluminum also bends instead of breaks so you might keep using a part that is bent without knowing it, whereas with plastic if it reaches the point of maximum bend, it will either break, or return...
I love my Tekno's, plus they're lighter then MIP's which means less rotating weight which equals a faster short course truck. +1
What setup tools do you use Steve (or others)? I've been looking at hudy's off road setup kit and integy's setup kit. Any suggestions on total offroad setup systems?
Care to compare?
Price of each?
Weight of each?
Main chassis purpose? (off road race, bash, road race)
Pro's? Cons?
Availability?
I have looked at a few posts regarding the two chassis and...
I am looking to upgrade many parts for my slash and am indecisive on aluminum parts or graphite (rpm) parts. I want to upgrade the steering knuckles, c-hubs, rear hub carriers, shock towers, body...

Thank you all for your input. I put both front and rear Traxxas sways on and I think I might be sold on a stiff rear and soft front sway bar. I like the fact that the rear is rigid and grips with the...
I just put on the sway bar kit made by Traxxas and I think it definitely helped with less body roll. In race cars we use a sway bar to keep the opposite tire on the ground when making a turn, this...
What is that supposed to mean? It's a forum with Traxxas Slash as the subject.
Any opinions on the Traxxas sway bars or the Hot Racing sway bars? I want to put a set of either on my 4x4 but am wondering if anyone has any reviews of either.
Im looking at purchasing some sway bars for my Slash 4x4 and was wondering if anyone has any opinions on both the Traxxas sway bars or hot racing sway bars? Pro's? Cons? What set is better. Any...
I found a track in or near Sacramento if any other Norcal racers are interested, though I haven't visited it yet here's their website. www.lsrspeedway.com
