Anyone else racing carpet this season?!
@Dereck2277 4 жыл бұрын
Great information, Ryan! Carpet is starting this year in Shreveport LA and I am anxious to try it out. I run tekno and only been in off road for 1 year- love it and I really enjoy your videos. Look forward to seeing you run this year, and I might even try to catch you live- if possible!
@garrettschultz127 4 жыл бұрын
Carpet has been an absolute game changer for me. I'm a motocross guy and die-hard dirt fan, which is what got me into r/c racing. Unfortunately I just got so flustered with the tire game and constant setup changes with dirt. I felt like 90% of my time was spent chasing setup and only 10% having fun and focusing on my driving. With carpet, once I get a solid setup then I only have to make minor changes from track to track, even being in the Expert class A-main. It's fast, clean, and consistent racing. Of course you can't afford to make hardly any mistakes but I really feel like it's more about the driver and less about the setup compared to other surfaces. At the end of the day, there is minimal clean-up. Not to mention it's very cost effective for track owners and makes track changes much easier. Never thought I'd say it, but I love carpet.

Really appreciate how much information you put out to try to help us get our cars dialed in. I have been to tracks where people try to keep everything a secret to get an advantage or something but the tracks that I have the most fun at are the ones where everyone is trying to help everyone else out. At my local track people will literally help others in the pit and even share parts and it really makes racing a fun and friendly experience. I mean, we aren’t all trying to be pro, we just want to have a fun weekend at the track. Thanks Ryan!

I just found out about a indoor carpet track about a half hour away from me in St. Cloud Minnesota. I bought a TLR 22 5.0 AC about 2 weeks ago and am working on the build. I can't wait to go racing!

Awesome video ! I also have been playing around with u-joints vs cvd joints on carpet after watching Trishbits Schumacher videos explaining the traction differences between the two , I’m actually running the TLR gear diff w/the TLR spec racer dog bones and hexes in my 17.5 Yokomo YZ2 lighter than stock bones plus the u joints allow the suspension to still work under forward drive vs cvd which goes to a flat straight shaft position when under a load. Just thought I would share yet another tuning option for carpet since it’s a whole different animal

Started racing rc's last year and im allready starting to dominate in the mudboss class, i won the championship and more than half the races this year, and i would say all your setup tips have defenitly steered me in the right direction! I have one thing bothering me with my setup.. i have too much initial steering, middle corner its pretty balanced and exiting corner not enough steering.. what would be the first thing you would try to numb steering going into a corner but still have enough for the rest of the corner?? Any suggestions? Thanks

Just some advice (and you may already know this) is that for carpet racing if you overshoot the down ramp land on full throttle and the car will land slammed to the ground and it won’t get upset. Cons: Idler gears tend to go quickly so don’t do it too often. Edit: It doesn’t really apply for that track because it’s a really high-speed course but for more technical tracks just send it lol
