I thought the point of racing sc10 trucks was to keep them standard for close racing!

No, the point was so we could jump miles and ram each other and not break anything, and also not go through tyres like underwear (every 3 weeks).

I may supplement my fuel pipe mod for normal oil inside the shocks instead this week. Might work better lol. WHat weight oil do you anal types run in yours?

Your car was awful on friday night, you would get to a corner, it start to lean for it then it would hit the bump stops and just flip over. No car should have to be driven past a hair pin before you can turn in with out the fear of rolling. It was Crazy dude.

Ant, think your trouble with the marmalade is that you have obviously gone for thin cut. It really is just too soft. You need to get the thick cut dude.: woot:

See I prefer the jam as the bits some times get stuck in the pistons, so some corners its nice and stiff, but for jumps its soft. (well thats the theory!)

I will try this week with some oil in the shocks. Rumour has it that works well.

Ant my tyres are still fine, although hardly used so far
