    This is normal as long as its not wobbleing alot. If it is you may have your friction-clutch setup wrong.

    Check out the instructions on the traxxas.com site, it may have what you need to answer you questions.

    if the spur gear wobles when it spins at low rpm's then it will probly straighten out at higher rpm. as long as the mesh is fine i think you should be ok.
    Everyday I beat my own previous record for number of consecutive days I've stayed alive.
