Ned try this setup. I ran it yesterday at the Best of the West shootout and had the fastest car on the track. PERIOD!

Front, NEW #2 pistons with Losi 45wt shock oil. Shocks in the stock CEN Location (upper shock mount middle, lower shock mount inside on the arm).

Rear shocks NEW #2 piston with Losi 40wt shock oil. Shocks in the upper middle and lower arm inside. Also, DONT run the rubber shock booties. I have found that they hold any dust in and change the PACK rate of your shock. The small amounts of dirt that would get in your shock are stopped by the "O"-rings.

I run the Kyosho KANI LSD diff up front with the Kyosho LSD oil. I run the CEN Matrix Aluminum diff housing middle and rear with 5,000wt Kyosho diff oil center, and Mugen 3,000 wt oil in the rear of my buggy. I run the CEN matrix stock blue springs.

I am also testing a new tank design and will give you specifics VIA email or PM. NOT on the open forum. my email is grboudreau @ gmail DOT com and my website is www.GabeBoudreau.com for more information on the CEN Racing Matrix PRO and Truggy.

I appologize for not answering your question sooner, but I was in Murreita Friday and Saturday for this race and now am off to San Diego for a test day on the Matrix TR Arena truggy.

Regards,
