running a challenger backwards

[twincam88]

has anyone ever run a 2.250 challenger backwards? mine is on backwards and it seems like all it does is spin. even on the setup snow here in the flat land. so far this track has not impressed me!!

Turn it around dummy

Guys normally put it on backwards for more bite but less braking ability. So don't be surprised if you turn it around and discover even less traction!!

i thought they only turned them around after the lugs get bent over so it gives wicked traction when flipped around.

the lugs on the track are now tearing off! this challenger is JUNK! i think i will cut it down and use it for asphalt racing!!

Wow! They got asphalt in that part of Saskatchewan??? lol

why did you put it on backwards? the track should have arrows specifying the direction of rotation. the arrows are there for a reason. i have seen tracks that were run in one direction for many miles with no problem have the lugs start tearing off when you flip them around in reverse (attack 20)

just like canoe head said we thought it would have more traction but i never thought it would start coming apart!!

well boys i have to say im sorry and i was wrong!! just got back from revy and i have to tell you the challenger came through!! turns out i have to learn throttle control. they are right when they say its 90% operator 10% machine!! lol.
