That Quark looks just like the original Quark that you first modded and posted about a few years ago. Is that the same one?

I see you're putting those Hyperion packs to good use.

Is that a receiver pack I see in front of the motor?

Nice progress! That's gonna be a mean one.

Thanks Sike, the G3 packs have 2 extra heat shrinks on them for good measure as the packs are low enough to get rocks and stuff hitting them. Yes, that is a Rx pack, the HP G3 LiFe packs in fact, they work great, I get roughly 50 mins per pack running a 7955TG servo. I used a friends of mine iPod touch with the 'dyno' app. (very cool), get this, the 0-60mph time on asphalt now is 2.1 seconds, down from a ~3.5 second before the mods. I find the tracking and understeer and oversteer conditions are so much improved... on hard pack driveway, it has a slight oversteer condition, which is PERFECT, you can also just chuck it into corners and expect it to come out with a nice drift, and perfectly controllable too!

Well, that is all I am doing to it this year, next year I am going to do a Eight-T 2.0 build with a special weapon, and it involves an outrunner motor, while maintaining CD, and slipper action.


Oh, and just for reference, the setup is as follows:

-Quark 125 w/6s G3 lipo, 1512/3D (1700kv)
-new E-revo shocks w/70wt f/r (silver springs front, blue springs rear) w/P3 rockers
-new 13mm axle carriers front
-RPM true track rear end
-E-revo diffs f/r
-front caster angle set as far back as possible
-the toe in rear is 1.5 toe-in obviously (true track)
-front toe is approx. 1.5 toe-out (this combo provides best straight line 'on-power' stability)
-weight distribution is pretty close to 50-50 front-rear, with a slight rear bias

Just thought I would post this as it is an insane winner of a setup at the track.
