Only gained about 1 mph and my et’s weren’t great no gains there, need to do better in the first 30 feet. My Street Outlaw car did not like the top end figured out rear shock tower was way loose and just rocked the car at high speed.

Next weekend more testing.

Ran best mph so far @ 57.2 only got like 3-4 runs in this foam tire racing is time consuming with the tire prep but its fun..... 2 mph gains pretty good considering the only difference was timing up one level and turning the punch down 2 levels. Leaving the punch on kill caused the car to do a wheelie with the tire prep I did kind of surprised me :shock: , havent been better with the et's but close to my best so far needs more tuning..............

The videos before this last one was a bad outing, the rear shock tower was loose on the Outlaw car and would rock the car at the top end and just lose control and flip, in the latest video the flip was do to over correcting the steering. The Outlaw car is very sensitive to any steering input with the locked diff...........................Im not to savvy with the remote control features but was told to slow the steering rate down a bit so next time we will see...............................................

Decent piece! I know its sounds like alot but go to servo speed (if u havent already) and back the throttle side down to 50% or lower, u will be amazed....once u find the right %, prolly in the 30% range, u will be able to dead hook that car. Not sure what servo u got, but slowing the servo speed down on the steering, say to 75%, will calm ir down on the big end. If u already have tried all this, disregard...good luck

No luck saturday at the SDRA RC DRAGS race 1 'Winternationals', the ProStock Camaro red light loss in round 2 and the Street Outlaw car was #1 qualifier but lost in the semi finals......................

On one of the passes traction was so good it popped a wheelie out of the gate let off the throttle got back on it and popped another wheelie, that was with the punch turned down :shock:
