Thanks ,
I've jut returned from the training but had some problems I'm very new to 2wd world . Basicaly followed most the settings you gave me , I had mini-pin tyres front (4x4 tyre so quite large ) and rear mini pins as well . The mates over there stiffened the springs so that the car would have more height . But I couldn't stear sharp at all only when I break I would stear a little and usualy the rear went in front ... The chief advised me to put Mini-spike at the rear and stagger at the front for the tyres . Is it a good start ? The motor was the 6.5t LRP's X12 with a 17teeth spur gear . The 10.5t is on order but out of stock ... I've ordered the springs you recommended as well. Just to really point out that even the B44s with mini pin and mini spikes that were on the track have a lot of trouble already on this track surface . It really is the worst type of track surface except ice perhaps and even so i'd put screws through the wheel and then have a better grip than this highly polished vinyl surface we have The car is fine I'm learning an awful lot from it already compared to my b44 but I'm really strugling/fighting a lot more than having any form of fun ... Edit: How should you drive the 2wd on a slipery surface ? I've been told to never touch the brake or the accelerator in the corners . It sure makes it bearable but slow ... incredibly slow... I think I'm a burden on the track compared with the other 4wd runing fast in corners |

Okay
So I've it put on my DIY bed setting ... Front camber was 4 deg one side 5 the other (i've changed that on the spot at the club going from 0 to whatever i've found toaday didn't change a thing in driving so left it lol) -> I've set it at 2deg each Toe at the front was 0deg right and 1deg left in toe in -> I've set the Front toe out by 1deg each side Rear was 2deg camber on the left 5deg on the right ->I've set it at 3deg camber for both Left the rear toe in STD as is a shimmer buisness Might make the chassis feel a bit more healthy I guess but I doubt it will change anything to my "it goes straight on in the curves" |

Thanks for the info, i thought that astro tracks had more traction than grass one!
You used a heavy front end (add weight) and 30° castor, it s for better steering? I will try the Southport BRCA set up as a starting point. Thanks |
