the closest track is an hour away, the other is an hour and a half. and they are more setup for 1/10 and smaller trucks. i could run em there but i have more fun playing around here.

also when i was racing my 2003 hpi savage 25. i had a stock chassis, with traxxas zombies and rpm offset wheels. thing ran great. dialed my shocks in to the point where it wouldnt bounce and she did amazing. also for your friend thats blown his diffs. tell him to put thicker oil in it and hell find he can get a limited slip diff from it, im talking 50 000 weight oil, the stuff you have to use pliars to squeeze the bottle to get it out. also litium grease in with the ring and pinion does wonders
he used a really thick grease in his differentials. not sure the type, but when i saw it i was like well, definately provides good lubrication, and no leaking out of the case. im not saying they are a bad machine, just something i have been around that i wasnt all that impressed with. they have lots of power and all that. just seemed like it was always breaking.
