I just ran my first race with my new CRT.
I did ok, but I think I need to make some changes.
I would like to get the truck to turn a little better, it seems to push coming out of the corner, and the front tires ballon more than i would expect.
Any suggsetions on diff fluid, shocks oils, and other setup??
Thanks

Front tyres ballooning:-
Try putting a heavier/thicker viscosity oil in the centre diff so the power is more evenly distributed between the front and rear....worked for me when I had the same problem with my 8T.
Steering:-
Maybe experiment with removing the front anti roll bar, this also worked for me but you may have different results.

Are you running the stock tires? Mine balloned as well, and i put on some lpr crimefighters, changed my diff oils to 7f,10m,3r, it seems to make all the difference. And welcome to the crt family lol
