well after running mine and watching a lot of other berg rigs at the battlegrounds, i realize i need to do some tweaking to the berg tuber.
list of things that need done:
shorter shocks maybe even relocated on the chassis to limit some of the articulation i have. it is just a bit too much, it hurt me in a couple spots.
a little lower center of gravity, going to lower the ride height a bit as well while messing with the shocks. it was a little unstable in some off camber situations and i didn't ever need the ground clearance that i actually have.
tires need some more messing with, the foams i am running are still too soft. i need to stiffen them up, i have an irregular idea i am going to try,.....stay tunned it will be interressting.
aslo going to add some weight to the wheels to help with the steep high wheel speed climbs. not a big fan of the wheel weights but i am going to try it anyway.
and last i am going to be re mounting my rear upper links to make them a little more parallel to the lower links. right now they are mounted at the same point on the chassis as the lower links which is giving me way too much anti squat and causing the rig to act goofy under throttle and on the steep climbs.
lots to do before the next comp!

) if i ever have the inclination, or approval to spend $100 on a set of R/C wheels, i am almost 100% POSITIVE those are what i am going to get....
