Default RE: King Motor T1000 Baja Truck

Nice videos! I need to find a good bashing spot and bring out the HD camcorder and get some footage. I have to beg my g/f to video for me lol.

As far as the silicone shock oil goes it seems almost everyone that races the hpi's uses it. I've read a ton of good things about using it and some guys have 2 years plus on the silicone with no leaks or any issues. I don't know why hpi says to use the fork oil. The damping with silicone oil is TONS better feeling.

I've read that 50wt is great for the T with 2 hole pistons in the front and 3 holes in the rear. I'm going to switch out my T1000's oil this week. I don't even know what pistons are in that from the factory?
