Status: offline 		Well my Jato hasnt been doing wheelies lately and I'm thinking of tightening the slipper clutch... it's at factory settings at the moment... so how tight is too tight? How exactly does it work? is it just that you get the torque more gradually or what? Or does it actually transfer less power to the wheels? Thanks!!

Traxxas likes to advertise their truck doing wheelies but they are running on race tracks designed for race cars. I have ran 2, 3.3 jato trucks, and they never wheelie. They just don't get traction. If you use some different tires like the pin style tires, it will do better. But the stock pythons will not hook up. I have never had a set of street tires that hook up.
