Should I Reprep

[Ryanh]

My cars have only raced at CFC but they have gotten a lot of track time since I got my track set up. It seems like a couple of them have slowed down but it could be other factors as well I guess. Just being my paranoid self and not trusting my prepping being it was the first time I did it. I have read that less is more when it comes to oil so I am wondering if I should at least wipe the axles down and reoil. Thank you Ryan

Do not wipe down and re-oil. It will slow you down. I re-prep before every race. In fact I prepped this last weekend and am debating on doing it again before the race. This is were a tuning board comes in super handy. If you are happy with the way they are traveling down the track, before you disassemble see what the turn in is. Re-prep and set steer to the same as before.

Thankyou QT! I think I will reprep, how many break in runs should I do before I start comparing my times?

with you having a test track now I would just relude to see what happen then if it not what you want I would reprep & see what happens

If you are using oil and jiga there really is no break in needed. Maybe a run or 2 down the track.

As far as reprepping the wheels should I repolish the bores with the last step or just clean them with alcohol?

Clean wheel bores and axles with alcohol and start fresh. Also clean your wheels, track time will make them dirty.
