Re: No prep

How do you change your suspension to do the no prep?

Re: No prep

I loosen the front and soften compression and let it wheelie . I'm planning to to spray 200 from 60-330 if it will take it .

Re: No prep

Definitely need to get the power in quick and the ease power out as you go . Dead hooked , 5 foot wheelie and 1.38 with the rear tires . Adding power later is a no no

Re: No prep

It is fine I drove it out and it landed soft . Also dropped the rear tire pressure 1.5 psi to 11.5 . Seemed to help it work better.
