I've spent the last couple of days dialing in my Reflex 14B on the new carpet track. Here are the upgrades I made to the electronics and shocks and some setup changes to get it working better.

You could also look at the Schumacher SST rally tires. They have a pin rear for the rear and a swagger style looking front tire take some of the bite away and make it easier to drive.

Man I wish I had a track like that near me. Dirt or carpet. Carpet must be nice as it keeps your trucks nice and clean and probably helps with maintenance.

I do like how clean the cars are! Don't have to do anything after I drive 'em, just pack them up and put 'em away until the next day.

Looks like it handles the new track layout nicely. I was out there a couple days ago and had a lot of fun with my 22t 4.0 the clay track wheels worked out fine for the moment . What days are you out there would definitely like to meet ya some time . Keep the videos coming !

Been away from the hobby for 25 years. Bought the T version of this little guy ti get myself a starting point. Dont really know how to se up a car but mine is not a racer just a fun thing for pavement and light dirt. Ive been searching like crazy where can I get the shocks and springs, the little white spacers and that clear film you have on the bottom. I been reading your stuff on RCTech too sorry if i missed anything about those items

Nice vid bud, yeah the tires have always been an issue with this scale, I've ran every thing from 10th scale touring and rally tires all they way up to 10th scale buggy tires on my mini 8 and most of the 14th scale tires, all change the geometry and just dont truly feel right, always find my self going back to the stock kingpins. Proline did a mod for the mini 8 that incolved cutting and gluing, I would definatley check that vid out if you haven't seen it, with a track like that you need some proper rubber and ride height, then that thing will rip. Just picked my son up a 14b to run with my mini 8, I read all your posts on rc tech forum, will probably be reaching out to you in the future for set up tips/advice.

Nice. I finally had the chance to try the new track yesterday and I love it. The non clay clean up was awesome too. I have the losi DB 1/14th but all upgraded. Maybe I'll try it on this track too. Merry Christmas buddy
@d.khoung359
@d.khoung359 4 года назад
@@williamperri3437 hey Bill, I upgraded almost everything on my buggy. Including the pinion. Hot racing and exotek has lots of upgrades for the DB. Just be careful not to get parts specific for the mini 8ight buggy. The DB is bigger and is the same size as the 8ight truggy. Traxass has a nice upgrade motor and ESC for the DB. I only run on 3s. As for the shocks. I changed the shock oil to 50cst losi to reduce the bounce. Hope this info helps.

I’ve watched this video 4 times now. I immediately ordered those tires that you are using. Still looking for those white plastic things you put on the front shocks to keep them from jamming. I noticed that after crashes or flips one or both of them may be jammed tight.
@RazorRC

Does NorCal do any mini scale 1/14 or 1/18 racing now that they have carpet? Do you know of any tracks in Northern CA that run a mini class? I'm closer to Sacramento, and my local track is great, but they only do 1/10.

@crunchchannel9391 3 года назад
like that track, imo carpet is better to run on once my local track moved to dirt i left. The smell of mouldy dirt sucks i cant stand it. Everything is just filthy. I know carpet can be hard on bearings and other issues but i like how much cleaner the off road carpet looks. The indoor track around here has had the same dirt moved around and it looks black from the years of mould and the whole inside of the building and pit area is just dusty and complete filth

It's hard, I need to get the setup right. I have the buggy set low so it doesn't traction roll, but it chassis slaps pretty easily and tumbles on that second double there. Another day of tuning and I think I should have it.

That sucks that they switched over to carpet. I just love clay because the surface isn't flat and it's fun having to deal with some pot holes and elevation changes. While all this is, is just flat carpet with some jumps. It would be a little better if they put a little effort into the track. I also bet you lost a lot of good racers. I hope you club stays together.
@RazorRC
@RazorRC 4 года назад
The racing was getting pretty sparse, so this has actually gotten new people to turn out who don't normally come. We'll see what happens over the next few months.
@ricksprings
@ricksprings 4 года назад
I agree! The ruts, pot holes, imperfections of dirt can't be added to carpets..... but cars staying clean & new looking, can't beat that! Never raced on carpet either, I'd welcome it
@lukestevenson5927
@lukestevenson5927 4 года назад
