Track conditions:

Indoor

50% PVC very low traction, 50% thick carpet very high traction

Today I finally got a chance to go to the track and have some setup fight !

I was well prepared to get stuff right. Here's the basic setup:

Front
-Blue cut stagger no insert:

-5° yoke

-outside link 50.5mm

-4.0 springs 450cst std piston

-outside spring on the wishbone middle on the tower

-no shims under ctr

-front ackermann

-1mm under camber link stud

-Middle position c hub

-1° toe out

-Yellow mini pin medium insert

-Inside link 3 dink

-2.0 spring 350cst std piston

-inside spring on the wishbone middle on the tower

-3mm toe in (3.9° total) and 3mm for the antisquat

-Gear diff 12500cst

-1mm under camber link stud

-LRC

-medium wheelbase

-shock tower fliped with 12mm shim.

-low grip convertion chassis

-Ball diff gave me way sharper turns on high grip bits when touching the brakes I prefered the gear as I have found it to give me better control in mid corner. On slipery surface it didn't change much.

-3mm Antisquat to 1mm prosquat didn't do much expect if anything make it worse and lost traction even on the high grip.

-Front blue tyre compound made the car easier by quite a bit from the yellow compound.

-I've made 5x25gr shims to fit at the back of the car behind the rear diff. 50gr made the car a little bit more planted coming to 100gr made the rear too heavy and started waving back and forth out of the corners.

-The flipped shock tower helped the car feel a tad more planted especially at speed.

(here's the big one ! )

-The car being twichy as hell I decided to go from 3 dink inside hole to outside hole with 2 dink and boy oh boy did that change the whole thing!
