RE: Cen Matrix Tr Arena

hi matty, part of your push problem maybe the spring set up you have. In general terms, if you want to get some more on power steering you need to get the weight transferred from the rear to the...

RE: Cen Matrix Tr Arena

RE: Cen Matrix Tr Arena

RE: Cen Matrix Tr Arena

CNC hubs and carriers are a must IMO. I have converted to 17mm hex and can only runs 1/2's if i don't run extended hubs (can only be 450mm wide where i race).

RE: Cen Matrix Tr Arena

RE: Cen Matrix Tr Arena

It should fit ok but is more suited to a monster truck - plus a pull start on a .32 is just asking for trouble. On top of that, if that is a $US price tag, IMO there are a hell of a lot more truggy...
