    Lrp no power

    Running my new lrp 28 with an ofna 86 pipe I'm a little disappointed in the power. When i first ran it my slipper clutch was loose. I thought it was the new clutch not grabbing. So after a few more high speed passes I check the slipper clutch and realize that was the issue. I tighten that down...

    Robinson racing spur

    I'm using the robinson racing spur gear with the hpi factory vented clutch bell. My rr spur did come with a clutch bell but I didn't install it. Anybody have any issues with using the vented bell as opposed to the rr bell? They're both have the same number of teeth.

    dynamite aluminum clutch shoes

    I installed dynamite aluminum clutch shoes and a mugen spring. When installing I couldn't get the spring to fit into the clutch nut grooves. Do I need a different nut? The springs rest above the groove. I installed the shoes with the dynamite logo visible. Any ideas? Thanks!

    vented holes in the tires

    I installed 4 badlands onto 4 maximizer beadlocks. Neither has any vent holes. I noticed it when I finished putting together the last one. What would be some ways to put a few nice holes without taking the tire off? I'd rather poke holes in the tire instead of the rim. Had a ton of water...

    LRP 28 carb

    I just picked up an lrp and was going to check it for leaks. The carb has the HSN on te left side and the servo attachment on the right. Flipping the carb around so my throttle servo can be next to it wont cause any issues will it? I'm doing a mid tank build too.
