i have a S-maxx with a os .18tm and i love the wheelies but when im trying to race it wheelies like mad and i have a wheelie bar but it over powers it and still does them. it really sucks cause i glued my tires wrong cause my whole car wobbles at high speed on two wheels i LOVE the perfomance and i dont want to make it richer so how do i stop them?

set the car lower and learn throttle control lol.

i cant get a center diff for the tmaxx and i lowered it with zip ties bout half an inch of the ground and it still does them

loosen your rear suspension. and what kind of tires you running? maybe try some tires with less grip so they break loose more.

im runin stock nubby ones that are as bald as my dad

maybe loosen up your slipper clutch...

Isn't the s-maxx 2wd? Center diff isn't an option for 2wd.

Loosen your slipper a little.

pinky2252s

how do i do that? and yes the s-maxx is 2wd

just gear it higher!

Get a smaller spear gear. It will increase top end but you will loose low end. Which in your case, is what you want. You can also change the clutch bell to be a little bigger to help also. Again this will decrease low end and give you top end.

When you started this thread you said it was for an s-maxx. Now youre talking about a t-maxx.which is it?

pinky2252s

sorry there basicly the same truck, s-maxx

ttoks

you do know that you can convert an s maxx to 4WD lol, that's probably whats hes done, once converted the s maxx and t maxx are almost the same truck.

put lighter oil in your rear shocks set your ride height level with the ground...use some softer springs on the shocks....loosen your slipper.....you want it to squat and grab when u hit the throttle...and lowering your ride height with zip ties....how did you do that??? thats a new one to me...add your battery pack to the front of the truck to carry more weight up front..
Wheelies are seldom a sign of good performance...they are a product of the trucks centre of gravity...and suspension setup..

Just loosen the nut on the spur gear a little. Just a little though, if you loosen it too much it will slip excessively and melt the spur gear. You just want it loose enough that it slips a little whne you accelerate really hard. You don't want it to slip all of the time.

"sigh"

and i lowered it by puting the zip ties threw the a arms and up threw the shock tower and back again
