That's some great advice @razorrc, thanks man. Regarding #1, I am running the stock 50wt oil currently. I think that's what is stock, at least.
#2 - out of curiosity, why should I do this? I figured it would help keeping them on, never even considered removing them. Although running on loose terrain like this there's virtually no chance of a traction rollover so I imagine that's why they're unnecessary?
#3 - absolutely - I was trying to make up lost time so I was just sending it, but in practice I was landing on the ... landing.. and keeping my speed up, whereas during the race all the slapping down was killing my time. Several times I would land, give it some throttle, but since it was still decompressing the shocks I lost that traction and slid out.
And of course the chassis getting slapped certainly wasn't helping.
I'll be taking the truck back to the track this Sunday and we'll see how goes without the sway bars! Plus I'll actually have my steering cleaned up which will help immensely.
