Yeah, same basic layout, but they redid the end of the track to accomodate the RC MT side by side races. The enormous triple was toned down a bit, where the last jump was more a tabletop leading to a turn, but it was still a good jumping track.


Also, I went up on the springs from the bash. I ran golds in the front w/ 60wt oil, and in the rear I went upto tans w/ 70 & then 80 wt. It was doing really well overall, some more tweaking should get it in.

The rear is still a bit soft, even w/ preload all the way down. The spring rate seemed pretty good, but the intial rate was a bit soft. I may try some blks, else go to the 120mm springs to take off a bit of the pre-load.

I also recieved my TrueRC 8S 3200 15C batts right before the bash. I ran them in the mains and was pretty pleased, may more power then I can use. On the 10 min main I used up 1600mah, including a bit of driving around during the warmup. The batts are 650g, and can certainly be sized down a bit for shorter mains, but you never know until you run it. Should do a 15 easily. 8s A123s may work good as well.
