1/5 Scale Off Road Racers

Stuck home because some dirty breeder got we with their toxic funk, so not much else to do right at the moment, so I'm working on some sticker ideas for our local track. This is my third attempt. Trying to keep it simple and readable. This one is growing on me quickly. Just showing a few different color versions.

Threw this together a couple weeks ago, just haven’t had time to touch it up until tonight. Thinkin it might be a cool sticker for all us cats to represent our home track.

Who's the shock guru/ Replacing cracked pistons right now. Still using stock, as MOD is out of stock on big bore pistons right now. Realized there is 6 different numbers in the bag. Goes from 2.0-2.5. The cracked ones are the stock 2.1 that came in the shocks from the factory. Not sure if I should continue to use the 2.1, or swap out? Right now I'm running stock pistons on all four corners, with red springs front and rear, with 45wt on all four corners. If i drop the truck, it pancakes the ground. I would think if I went 2.0 on the pistons, it'll slow down the flow and stiffen it up a smidge? definitely needs to stiffen up.

Still have a couple rounds to go in the MOD 1/5 Off Road Championship Series. Been a tough year for me making it out this year, Vegas has been my only stop. I'm trying my best to get things in order for the 2024 season. I'll miss the next round, round #5 for the West Coast Nats warmup out at Good Ol'Boyz RC Club Raceway as I'll be fresh out of surgery and on a 4 week recovery. I do however plan on making the West Coast Nats and the final round at TheDirt Racing in Perris. I've luckily been able to catch all the live feeds, been some gnarly racing this year. Can't wait to get out there a mix it up.

Anybody running these carbon fiber shock towers? I'd really like to go carbon rather than aluminum, but I'm looking for some real world feedback. I'm a big fan of the carbon fiber look, but I don't wanna spend the money and run em if they're not worthy. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Check out these stunning ultra HD Shock Towers CNC machined from Quality 6mm british carbon fibre sheet! Fits the Losi 5ive T/B and the new 5ive-T 2.0 Does not fit the RCMAX Diff housings Chance to add a discount 6mm thick carbon throttle servo brace cut from the same sheet!

Welcome everyone. As we all know, there is several 1/5 scale pages on Facebook. Most of all of them are basher, and how-to pages, but there is not one dedicated solely to all things off road racing, so I decided to create one. Here we can discuss Current, upcoming and past races. We can discuss parts, tips and tricks. If you have something to sell, feel free. Just don't be a scumbag ripoff. Hoping this may help grow the actual 1/5 scale off road race scene. If you're a seasoned veteran, step up and welcome the new comers. Be giving with information. Welcome as many new drivers to the sport as possible. Do not spam or you will be banned and blocked immediately. Don't be a dick or you will be banned immediately. Other than that, let's talk all things racing and have a good time.
