Default Rayne Timeline setup

I'm for sure getting a Rayne Timeline soon and i was thinking about getting Tracker RTX/S trucks and Abec 11 seven-o's 78a wheels. I've read about a lot of people using Trackers but i feel like they won't be as snappy as the rtx. What do you guys think, good setup? Any advice is welcome. thanks.

I just got one yesterday, so don't have a lot of time on it, however I will share with you my set-up and how it feels.

Timeline w/ 150mm Tracker Fastracks (flipped top bushings), Seismic Black Ops Blue Hotspots.

It's very carvey, the perfect length, great platform and shape. Bounce is mild for my 150Lbs but just enough.

I expect it to be a ton of fun in garages.

'08 timeline?
Well, if you're gonna use it as a pumping setup.....good luck with that.

overall, it's a pretty solid cruiser.

I always found the timeline to be way unstable as a fast pumping board. It seems to have way too much
torsional twist for pumping, as it seems to send out the back wheels alot. I think it has to do with the blend of offset camber and variable concave.

I had mine setup with a 5.0 Fury Evo front truck wedged +10, and a 129mm Tracker RTS dewedged 5 degrees. Rolling on 81a Gumballs.

Funny, I feel that the Timeline is an excellent pumper. I have pumped mine non-stop for miles up and down the boardwalk with relative ease.
