Can anyone help me with a starting setup for the outdoor track?
I've never raced there before so am preetty clueless on what the track is like... grip level, bumpiness etc.

Car is durango 210

Only ever driven it indoors so far so guessing my current setup will be pretty useless which by the end of today was.....

Front
19.5mm ride
0*toe
1*camber
camber link... outer on hub, outer on tower two washers
30* castor
3 trailing insert, 4 washers behind
extra 1.5mm spacer on outside steering link
inner steering link rear position
dark green spring 450 oil 1.2*6hole
shock location middle on tower, outside on arm
Mini spikes yellow
droop max


Rear
19.5mm ride
3* toe,
1.5* kick up (would have tried 0* but couldn't find the block :thumbdown:)
1*camber
camber link No washer, 3rd hole in from wheel
hubs centre, 2mm each side
400 oil 1.3*6 hole
light blue spring
Shock middle on tower, inside on arm
droop max
mini pins yellow

looking at the 210 setups on the site for outdoors, doesnt look like you'll be far off already

There's a lot of grip, grip-rolling will be your main issue. Obviously, it's bumpier than indoors, and from my testing last week, it's bumpier than it was last year. You're likely going to want to raise your ride height and probably your oil and springs too.

Been to do some testing today, used this setup as a base

Went really well, few adjustment to camber links and rear shock location, and its pretty dialled! Also added a 66g lipo weight and really stabled the car up, no grip roll ( track was bone dry)
You'll be suprised how much grip there is, so if your struggling sunday, try this one.
