Xray T2 008/009 Setup For Rug Racers HRCC

[Brooks]

Hi people

Done the first round of Rug Racers last Sunday, the 008 went well but not perfect, seem to have no rear end grip, plenty of front end grip but the car didnt feel very easy to drive.
Was wondering if any else went to Rug Racers and raced a 008/009 what setup they were running please.

Thanks in Advance

Cheers

I had the same, car would swap ends off power into slow speed corners.

I took away front grip with bigger front springs, bigger front arb. I've also added a 008 front chassis brace to my 009. The car doesn't swap ends at all now, much easier to drive.

I'm also using exponential on my handset to calm the car down, used to racing rallyx where the cars are a lot slower.

I started off with this setup: http://forum.teamxray.com/xform/inde...2&setup=t2_008 using 3.0/2.6 springs
