After all the initial cursing and all WTF´s at the beginning I can say now that I am happy with my car.


Between last sunday and today I have used my car 5 days, gone thru many many tanks of fuel and not a single problem.


I have had more fun with this car than any other nitro car I have used before.


After I installed the Lauterbacher clutch the performance of the car has been the same all the time. Hot or cold.


I went back to the original shock springs because the car was too "tippy" (is that the word?), too high, now it slides better. Easier to drive fast.


Now I want to experiment with air filters, I feel that the billet ones are kind of restricted and not "aerodynamically" correct.


Also I am going back to the 813 carb now that I found my performance weakness (clutch) and see if it gets any better.


I will keep you posted.


Thanks for all the help.
 
keep me posted on the clutch. my truggy is down since the new clutch/spring didnt work that well today. its great when you get them to a point were you can just run and run with little issues. i took a nitro out today to do some break in and what a pain in the ars it was..


so what other options do we have besides the elcon.. louterbaker? does fg make an adjustable clutch?
