I have a full thread on how to tune your Traxxas Slash 4x4 for racing on the Traxxas forums. It's a 13-step guide and I walk through what the various adjustments are for and what I recommend in terms of tuning to get the most out of your Traxxas Slash 4x4. Check out the whole tuning guide at:

Great info on the slash 4x4 race setup. Your Videos are always very informative. The people who have slash 4x4s and want to get into racing (a lot) will certainly find this very helpful. Another great vid! 👍👊😎

Hello world, I.e., RazorRC!

Please be advised, if you're reading this, I'm a VERY experienced hobbyist and while I'm NOT trying to brag with my sentiments, I wanted to give an adequate foundation about the why, what, where, and when pertaining to these tutorials being beyond helpful. I'm lucky enough to do this for a living, E.g., I work for AMain Hobbies - easily the best online resource for kits, parts, etc. - and am lucky enough to be a sponsored driver. I'd be lying if I stated that I don't reference these videos for both my personal and professional lives. They're THAT helpful and it prepares a person to not only work on their RTRs but to prepare for a full race spec kit as well.

MAJOR kudos to RazorRC! Thank you for producing the most helpful and well-filmed tutorials in a sea of imitators.

This is invaluable knowledge! I ran my 4x4 vxl in a box stock class at my local track until they closed. I am now getting back into racing and I can not wait to test my slash with some of these tuning tips!

Great info. Most beginners have a slash 2wd or 4wd so thanks you just helped out a huge group of people that need help. I started with slash platforms and I now have ae and tlr and the one great thing about the slash is you don’t have to worry about parts being discontinued because the new model just came out. I believe I’ll be dead and the traxxas slash parts will still be the same and available. One more thing, it’s very fun beating friends that have a racing platform with a slash

This is very educational but since every track condition is different even the same track can change depending on time of a day there is no real track set up guide. Multiple factors come into effect when it comes to track set up from tires, shocks angles, shock oils, differential fluids, toe angles, ride height, pinion gear, and it can change on the track and conditions of the track. So when it comes to set up it all comes down to trial and error and asking the fellow racers what they use and hope they share their experiences and knowledge

Thank you really appreciate it, really appreciate your peace on Traxxas slash forum

Awesome video, I tried the xxl shocks in the front and wow the difference is insane. Also got the blue gtr springs you recommended and I finally get some rebound!!!

[samdharma]

Cool video and I learned a lot. Cheers

Hi Razor RC, thanks for the video. I have also done the nice thing to read the full topic on the Traxxas site. Incredible how much effort and time you put into this. I am only an amateur myself and do not compete. For me it is "just for fun". However, I want to thank you, because of your input I can drive a bit faster and my car handles much better. THANK YOU and lots of respect. Sorry for my bad English. I am from Belgium.

25 minutes of "Buy a proper racing kit" LOL! Just yankin your chain Razor, this is an awesome video! With all the newbies getting slashes for xmas, this video might not be timed perfectly, but it'll definitely do well!

I've been watching your channel a lot lately after dusting off my slash 4x4 I kept thinking razor rc name sounds so familiar. Now I understand why, the Traxxas forums..

[mentz]

Awesome video!
Just located and will read your thread on the forum, thank you!!!

Step One: Get an SC6.1
In my experience, the Slash is a fun truck to bash but it’s a money pit. No regrets buying one but in hindsight would not have spent so much trying to upgrade it.

[trkinwithmikey]

Wow thanks man super educational I love it

[MRBRUSHLESS]

Awesome video very nice info on the Slash 4x4 race set ups great job thumbs up 👍

[ScottzillaRC]

Great info 😎👍 I need to watch your 2wd video next

[NitroStarGT]

Great info! Thanks. Will come back a watch and read SLOWLY!

I have a traxxis slash 4x4 with LCG chassis, sway bars, proline shocks, chassis brace, savox servo, adjusted all end points etc and still the truck sucks on my local carpet track. Went through everything bearings, a arm move free, trained various shock settings and oils. The truck just doesn't turn worth a dam. I am now running an xray xb2 carpet buggy so it doesn't matter as much but I will say my totally stock arrma senton with changes to shock mounting and oil corners waay better than the traxxis.

I'm trying to put the xxl shocks on the front but the shocks won't go on. They collides with the camber link since the rear shock tower can only go on backwards due to the way it grooves into the front diff carrier. The upper standoffs built into the rear tower are on the inside. Because of this the angle of the shock collides with the camber link. It looks like its not possible, i need like an inch of clearance.
