AIR FILTER Running in the rain requires a special filter. Kyosho makes a good wet-weather filter (part number 92304) that has a shield on the outside to keep the sponge dry. If you don’t have this specific filter, a lot of guys get creative with plastic bottles or other things to build a shield. Anything that will cover the sponge and protect it from water while allowing airflow will work. LAST RESORT: LOSE THE WING If there is a lot of sticky mud, it can be smart to remove the wing completely. If it gets caked with mud, you’ll find that the car works better without a wing at all. This is for extreme conditions where you are basically mud-bogging your way around the track. WRAP UP Well I think that about covers mud running. In a total mud bog it sometimes comes down to who’s car keeps running, so the air cleaner and tune could win the race for you. In severe adverse weather focus on finishing that race as the main goal. - PK Rednecks would use a tractor! WWW.VRCMAG.COM 61
