Default Revo doing wheelies?

Anyone doin wheelies with the stock setup? I know that was one of the advertising things with the TMAXX back in the day, never saw or heard it on the revo. Just curious.

it can do it, tuned right... I've always had a hard time tuning mine... and now I think my clutch is worn out to the point that it won't engage that quick to do a wheelie.... but, tuned right... it will wheelie.

That's fine but I would have a good idea what your doing before sticking in that new motor.

Basically you want to run the piss out of it without burning it up.

270-300 degrees or so if you're racing around. Temps in the 240-270 for fun. Things like tuned pipes and cooling heads will change these numbers and eventually you will know how it is running by how it sounds and by the throttle response you get.

the worst is when you do it in the street... in second gear... I tightened the brake on mine... and... it's hard to drive any of the other ones that don't have a tightened brake.
