Sam on the old layout at torch I ran this setup on my mad monkey. I was about 5 seconds off tq with this.

Springs - ansmann x2c black front and ansmann soft (purple) rear
Piston 2 hole STD
Oil 30 rear 20 front
Shock positions inner hole top outer hole wishbone front and rear
Links in kit positions
1degree neg camber rear, 2 neg front front wheels parallel.
80 grams of weight on servo.
Yellow minispike rear - blue insert
Yellow stagger front - no insert

I titled the shocks over to make it less nervous on corner entry but the compromise was that the shocks being tilted in meant the rebound reduced and the car jacked down over bumpy sections and bottomed out. Hence the very low oil ratings to prevent this. The thinner I went on the oil, the better the car was.

Given more testing I'd probably have played with standing the shocks up again and played with the damping a little more. Alas I've moved so no more TORCH for me.

Hoping to buy an x2c in the next few weeks and race at stotfold.
