I have and it was an interesting conversation :thumbsup:

:blush:, must get around to doing another video soon

anyone got a setup yet for the new vrx ce car ?????????????

I set mine up as a normal v12 but on the front i used black rubber O rings instead of springs. And as in Pauls post leave the center washer out on the front plate for some camber.I found it better this way. and stiffen the rear a little with about 1mm droop fully loaded, batteries/shell ect. i found this works for me. oh and add a mardave sticker, it makes it faster, lol.

So thats an almost solid front end. How does it feel? Does the flex in the chassis help?
Makes me wonder how effect front springs are.

its near solid but has a little give, i find it very responsive, the chassis does have more flex that the alloy one but not that much. give it a try and let me know now you get on.:thumbsup:

Run mine very hard on the front, with 52's as well, feels much better.

I've done a load of work this evening.
I'll run it as is for a heat then harden up the front and compare.
My only option is to pack out the spring under the e clip I think unless I put some under the stub axle and lower the front at the same time.

Didn't know you were going to be running the new chassis phil

I'm not but I've seen several people mention hard fronts now, some using o rings instead of springs.

I only ever run standard springs all round, moving to mediums if need be. But never hards. Pic of my new ce chassis: http://i.imgur.com/CegSL.jpg

That is very slick Karl - I love how it even matches with your keyboard and screen... :thumbsup::p

Done on purpose of course ;) Haha

Karl, did you change the ball cups on the damper tube or colour them in?

Your car looks s**t hot pal :thumbsup:

What setup are you running?

I changed them Aaron, these are tamiya trf ball cups. The red mardave ones take a bit of freeing up, so me being the lazy person that I am I just swapped them right over :lol:

Cheers mate :)
