The tires I mounted and gave to you is the stable for the Lemo track. You will not traction roll. You're very welcome my friend. I'm glad everything worked out. ~ Roger
Thank you Roger! With the tires I was able to focus on other aspects of the car and more importantly think about my driving. I hope to see you all again soon!
Great video but no mention of what tires your running front and rear? This is 90% of your traction rolling fix. PN medium and front im assuming but what in the rear? Thanks!
That's indeed an oversight. For the RCP track I run on, I use 11mm marka 5 slick for the rear, glued to the rims. Front is the standard PN KS med slick, also glued to the rims and CA-glued on the side walls.
That car is running so good. So low. I can't stop traction rolling on my home rcp track. I am going to try the gluing the sidewalls. I don't know if I am ready to buy a tire truer yet. But a lower car is a good car to a point. I have a lower offset car(NSX +1.5) so I have already grinded away at the wheel arches to fit +2 offset wheels, not above them though. It's just me and my buddy right now. We only got rtr MR03's with some Nexx tires. We both have more time racing on foot to flip our cars than on track at times.
Tire setup is the biggest factor. I've found 22.5-23mm a good size in helping with traction rolling. I also don't have a tire truer, but PN low profile KS medium (KS1138) with a flanged rim (PN delrin or Reflex speeddish) plus tire tape get the job done very well. There's no truing or gluing needed.
Most of the same techniques are applicable for mini-z racing too, like glued tire side walls, softer springs, lower ride height, better body clearance, etc. Some modded mini-z even use side damper tubes (see PN or Nexx tri-damper conversions).

That's a lot of Houston Parts!!! Cool that they are all working together!!!
Thanks for the RX505 kit! Yeah I'm a Reflex fan for sure. Recently picked up a RX28K too.

Thank you. Maybe I can help here: what kind of nexx tires are you running?
@@sammybaka Nexx Gekko Front FM1. Thank you for reaching out.
When the tire is on the rim, what is the overall diameter?
@@sammybaka 24mm

why you write mini-z.....thats not mini-z
