I have a Great Astro set up but it is very twichy!

AE 35wtg in the front with standard pistons with Black springs(medium)
Front camber link on the longest with NO washers.
30' front caster.
Schumacher Yellow mini's with 1 outer row cut off and a soft insert.

AE 30wtg in the rear shocks with a 1.5mm hole drilled in the standard piston.
Black springs(Yellow=soft. Black=medium. Red=hard)
Camber link on the shortest and outer top on the shock tower
Alloy rear hubs.
Short wheel base

All the shocks are in the middle on the towers and the inner on the wishbones

I have made a front wing which helps at high speed turn in.

I am running about 50grams of weight on the front end.

5mm of anti squat

Schumacher mini's on the rear with a soft insert.

wing on the lowest setting with about 2mm left on the dam( proline wing )

about 20mm ride height all round( it changes to track conditions)

Cant think of anything else.

Ansmann springs all round.

If you like alot of possative steering swop the Acurman link round to make the ball stud more forward. You will have to modify it stightly though but it makes it turn on a pin head.

Have the ansmann springs a another colour as the team c springs?

info from a another-forum about the team c springs:

Hard/Blue | Medium/red | Soft/purple and black

Stu, what will be the diff if you move the ballstuds in the steering link ? you can move it front or rear.

The more forward the ball stud is on the the acurement link (not the wheel end), will make the steering more aggressive.

woOdy,
can you say the springrate (Theorical Rate lb/in) for your ansmann springs?
