SDRC Club Racing, 7/27/13

I raced Mod SC, running a LRP X11 8.5, but my lap times and race results are still slower than my stock truck :(





My new JConcepts swaybars. 


My broken glued plastic bellcrank, which I broke in practice after racing was over. 

The misting system watering the track after it was closed for the day. You can't see the drivers stand on the opposite side of the track!

My truck handled fine during practice, but when racing started, it felt loose, and it was difficult to get on the power. I had to tip toe around the track. 

Changes for next weekend:
1.6 rate rear springs
Throttle curve #2
0 washers on rear inner ball studs
Additional vent holes in body

Replacement parts:
Avid aluminum bellcranks
U brace
Finisher turnbuckles 
RPM ball cups
MIP hard anodized aluminum top shaft
CVA driveshafts
New differential 
Green compound barcodes
Clay compound rattlers
