need some help
 
Ok as previous post i am in new to the 2wd and I am fighting the traction deamons. I am running the jato. Here is what I have for set up 40 frt 30 rear, Diff is 1k Losi step pins rear with edges on the frt. Yesterday was working on trying to set up the slipper but I am not able to give it any gas at all with out the loss of traction any help would be great as I am lost. What is a good base line for the ride heigth, shock oils slipper clutch. The track we run on is hard pack with some marbles thanks PS other trucks were able to get great traction.

Good luck the Jato likes doing doughnuts is about all...only way i calmed it down in dirt was to toss road hawgs on it and run it on the street.

Others run them on dirt with various setups....dirt hawg tires will help it I had Mashers on mine they worked good for traction but slowed the Jato way down...try sending a pm to a dude called Unbreakable207, he runs his Jato on dirt and seems to have good luck with traction....others that own st's won't want your Jato on dirt cause their scared:D

k, tighten the slipper all the way, as for traction goes its all about iow u drive and how your engine is tuned, tires play a big roll, it depends on wat conditions u drive in, if u drive on-road only get on=r-ad tires, if u notice that u r loosing traction try letting of the gas or pushing on the gas like pulsing, and during that try to steer the car out, i loose traction on my rusty alot and this helps
