Track experience and couple questions....
#1
First off let me tell you I am slightly slow....the short bus dropped me off at the track.

Thanks to John with the new 8ight for helping me out, I don't know if he is on here but he was a great help. Its his help that keeps new guys coming back, and this in turn keeps tracks open.

First thing I learned is that the steering on the Spectrum doesn't come out of the box at its max extension...it goes to 125. Wish I would have known that at the track.

Second thing....set up the brakes so they are loose, I had mine a little too tight so the front was applied whenever i let off the gas. This lead to a terrible push...along with lesson one it really sucked.

Now for the question:

What kinda thread loc do you guys use? More importantly how do you break it when you have to remove a fastener?

I busted out the propane torch to heat a few up...but ended up drilling out one of the engine mtg bolts!

See you at the track next week...hopefully with a 7 that turns!
