I use a 5cell stick pack. Fits just fine.

I am using a Orion Marathon 1600 5cell pack and fits excellent!

ericem

With the flat pack if you look on the side closer to the engine there is a part where it extends over but under it is a deeper part, shove the rx pack into it, then it should fit. I Lay my RX vertically on the opposite side.



Now i have a normal stick pack.

kweezinarts

thnx for the pic eric, thats how i have my rx sittin in the box but i dont have a rx pack yet but when i stand a AA up in the box it stands up to high to fit the lid on...

i cant wait to run the ST-1 again. i think its been around a month....[:'(]

Starterbox rules. Now that all my friends use starterbox's, well almost all of them no one bothers me about starting issues. Its fine to because when we meet up we only need 1 starterbox anyways.

madmax22

yea next thing will be a box.... My dad was driving the AX10 the other day and said "From now on i think you should get the kits" "they are wayyyyyy nicer than the RTR's" lol so i guess my next trug or bug will be a pro kit :P cant wait!

I bought a Caster K8T Factory Pro Kit...it's very nice, I love it. Selling the TTR to my brother-in-law because he's tired of his Savage X getting whipped =P

Ok guys quick question.

I have a ofna violator with the force .28. It is 2 years old and only has 10 tanks of fuel run through it. It is way to powerful for the buggy and I was wondering if that force 28 would be better than the stock engine that comes on the ST-1? It already has a roto start on it and its broken in and tuned. Should I swap the engines around?

madmax22

yea i'd switch it..

ItchyBum

The force.28 is still a cheapo engine but it will go better than the stock .28

madmax22

i just put a new ON/OFF switch in so hopefully it wont turn off when i'm playing and go WOT...

madmax22

what would happen if you took the rear sway bar off???

ericem

Nothing to much. Ill bet it doesn't do much to begin with. If anything you will get better traction.

I think im selling my ST-1 amazingly. Decided not going to race. Just going to sell my car locally for like $300 + the $50 from my wheels. Racing will cost me $100 for the transponder (can't rent) + fuel + fee every race ($50+) = wish I just bought a Subaru Legacy Turbo with all the money I will spend every weekend racing. I will probably end up getting another ST-1 later in the summer. For now almost $400 in the bank is awesome.

chedster

Racing is spendy for sure it's just so much fun for me I dont think I could stop. Being a college student is tough on the funds though, dont think I will make every race I want to this summer.

ericem

Main issue for me is getting there to begin with. Track is like 1 hour away.

ItchyBum

I love racing its awesome to go each time and get better and better and learn new techniques and setups. Every time i go racing i find out about something new and im always improving my driving skills. I raced on sunday and made the A final but broke out after i hit a jump a bit crooked and landed on the back straight going the wrong way and had a massive head on collision with another truggy going probably 3/4 pace. I didnt see what type it was i think it was a MBX5T but i saw how badly it was damaged. The front arm was bent and facing back like fighter jet wing lol and the front of the chassis was bent up a bit and the right wheel wasnt inline with the arm so id say that was broken too. Me, i finally broke something, front right shock shaft Thats it! lol snapped it off at the shock end. And if i still had the ST-1 front bumper instead of the S3 one i wouldnt have broken anything but i prefer the S3 cause it cant stop dead in a nose dive from the ST-1 bumper sticking out too far anymore. Awesome fun but yeah it can get a bit expensive if your not careful cause you usually break something every time. Not always big things and not even always something on the car but usually always something lol

chedster

you guys locktite your wheel nuts down? I lost mine just as the main was finished and I was heading back to the pits. Still managed 6th place with no broken parts

ericem

I just retighten them a few times till they stop loosening up.
