I have a ofna hyper .21 on my T Maxx and I was wondering what setting to I go by or what wheels do I by (because I have the stock ones) and or what what of shock oil do I use to pop wheelies. Please help cant pop them now. oh and do I need to get the robinson racing spur gear and the 18 tooth clutch bell.

Philip try placing some shock travel limiters on the shock shaft inside the rear shocks. This will lower the rear end of the truck and could help in the wheelie dept. Then again it may not. Poping wheelies with a Nitro vehicle can be a tricky thing. Nitro engines do not have the instant torque of their electric cousins.

Hold the throttle slightly to get it moving, then mash the throttle. It gets the engine closer to its powerband without getting it going to fast. This is what a guy at the track was doing to get wheelies.

what i do for my Npede is i rev the engine real quick and warm up the engine and then floor it and make let the engine slowly rev down and i make a sharp U-turn, than i mash the throttle it my Npede goes Noseborn and rides it
