Hello,
I am picking up my Fury BLX at Hobbytown later today.
Just some background: I have been in the hobby for about a year now. I have owned a couple of RTR's including the 2wd Torment and Helion Criterion. I bash a bit outside with my son who drives a Team Associated SC10 2wd. We also spend some time at the local indoor track which is moist dirt.
My question is this... I keep hearing how much crazy torque the Fury's BLX motor has and I have seen some suggest it is best to re-gear it to keep the front tires down and from spinning the rear tires..
I plan on changing tires right away which might help a bit. But, I've bought a truck with speed for a reason! I want to go faster!! But, for racing things always need to be tuned.. so what do you think?
I was thinking I'd just start with a 7.2 V NMIH to start and see if it's really an issue. But, if it needs to be geared-down I want to buy the parts and get rolling. Thanks!!
