Set-up wise, very similar to what I've been running at previous events at this track throughout this season. I preferred a progressive front spring for fresh tires, as it felt a bit flatter, and I could attack harder without fear of loosing the rear. On used tires, I liked a linear front spring as it provided a bit more mid corner steering. I also went to a slightly longer front shock to improve steering on corner entry, which was especially needed at the end of qualifying on a hotter track, and older tires.

Battery wise - once again, the Nosram 9400 provided exceptional power with little fade at this open asphalt track! I'm really happy with the performance of these packs. Seemingly the same low IR as when they were new, even after many cycles in hot conditions, and NO puffing.

Bodyshell wise, the LensBodies Ghibli is my favourite body for Stock TC at this track. It just feels more "in the track" than the other options. I tried the Wolverine 0.4mm on Saturday, but definitely lost a bit of pace going to that body, as it felt harder to drive and less precise. As you can see in the attached picture, I'm using side stiffeners from Officina RC, as well as rear anti-tucks by MilanSport. I'm using the L version of the bodyshell.

Faultless power as always by Hobbywing. I recommend this setting for most medium to large size asphalt tracks. Try going up in PWM to 12K if your motor is running hot.
