I have decided that, since I never bash with this truck, I'm going to see what I can do about making it into a solid race truck.
First step was better tires, so I got Pro-Line Velocity Maxx size wheels and Pro-Line Crime Fighter tires.
Second was to see if I could lower the ride height and still be able to race/jump with it. At this point it may be too low, but it's very stiff so it may work out okay. These pics are where the height is now.
Once again, I'll be trying this out on Thursday to see how it does. If it actually stops raining and dries up a little, I'll be able to test in my yard sooner. I can run it off of my deck, which is about 2ft high to see how it reacts, and my bumpy lawn is similar in roughness to a rough racing track. We'll see how it goes.
