I wish we had a place to run our stuff. All LHS and tracks are gone. Last time I checked my buggy, it was fine but sucks not being able to run it. TKI3/Nova powered. I miss the smell and sweet sound she makes. :(

[@AdamDrake]

Bummer! :(

[@darthphabe8216]

Good video. I felt like this was made for me. I need to tighten up my maintenance game.

[@AdamDrake]

You can do it!

[@D70racing]

Great vid Adam. Ok so shock boots, this is one thing that confuses me. We are told to maintain them and replace if they get holes or tears. But we have also been told to put holes in the boots to eliminate the air trapped in them from being sealed so well. Which obviously will allow the air to not build up and affect Shock performance, but will in fact allow dirt to get in. Hence my confusion.

[@socwyvern9745]

Don’t use them they’re extra weight, use a mud flap made of lexan it’s les weight and just ricochets dirt buildup away from your shocks.

[@nitrogas5719]

I have never had a problem with shock boots with air in them, no need to put a hole in them

[@D70racing]

@@nitrogas5719 I felt the same way until I watched Robert Batlle video. He’s not the only one who’s pointed this out.

First thing I do when I build a new kit is toss the shock boots in the trash. Dirt sprint cars don't run them so I don't run them. I hate them! Lol

[@AdamDrake]

I don't usually put holes in my shock boots.

[@jefferycoleman3781]

You have probably never had anyone say this, but prolong engine/transmission treatment works for rc cars! Its all the same thing really, I've had folks laugh at me about it. I personally had an 81 camaro(12.33 @117mph in the 1/4} that lost an oil pump pick up, I still had to go to work for almost two months with bouncing oil pressure, no damage, the bearings looked new when I finally repaired it. I break shit in, then add prolong, it pretty much stops wear, but you need some wear, thats why you can't do it right away. I've used it after doing some shady pinch jobs on nitro engines, and they last quite a while!

[@AdamDrake]

Very cool, thank you!

Hi Adam, awesome video again! I see you have the narrow C and D blocks on the car. Do you have an idea when they will be for sale? I'd love to try them on one of the super low traction tracks in my neighbourhood.

[@AdamDrake]

Thank you. Just something we're testing at the moment. Hopefully we offer it as an option in the future.

[@klaushg]

Hey adam great video. I plan on rebuilding my differentials, what grease should I use outside the differential case?

[@AdamDrake]

I use the protek white grease on the ring and pinion and Mugen grease on the outdrive/diff cups.

[@adamcamacho5675]

Great video as always. How often do you change your bearings?

[@AdamDrake]

Thank you! It really depends on the track conditions and the amount of dust. I do check them often.

[@jussk811]

Hey Adam, could you please do a video on servicing all the bearings on both nitro buggy and truggy. Would really appreciate it.

I do that to Mr drake.. how about the chamber links ball ends.. how much is to much slop

You only need enough to make sure everything moves freely.

[@jstump1972]

Your opinion on something like endust on arms, shocks, chassis, towers to keep dirt off?

[@AdamDrake]

I just use compressed air for cleaning between races at the track.

Shock boots?! You mean, 350Q latex balloons.

I thought I was the only one who did this lol

How do u create the hole for the shaft to pass through the end of the balloon?

Id like to know as well how you make a hole for the shaft, boots are so expensive
