It was even faster on the rack, the car is superb. Need to find some more rear straight line traction but think that was helped by the stock set up of 12500 cst diff oil. More testing to come and TrishBits weight ordered.

Picked mine up yesterday. Hope to start the build tonight. If not then it's this weekend. Is there a condensed best practise or set up sheets available?

I've seen there are a few in the back of the manual. But I wondered if there was one for damp astro please?

Hi
Has anyone got a report on the KF on Astro outside rather than in doors on high grip perfect conditions.

What is the difference with the shocks in front or on the rearside of the shocktower in driving?

With the shocks in the front it should pivot a little better... I use the shocks in the rear on very bumpy tracks. This will put more weight between the shocks and should work a little better under these circumstances.

Thank you very much Martin

So on a flat indoor carpet track like the one in Oss it is best to place them in front of the shocktower?

Had 2 training day's with the KF. Broke 2 times my 1251 servo from Savox.
So a full size servo is the best choice...

Beside this, the car drives very very good om high traction!!! It jumps like no other 2wd car I've had!
