High Bite Indoor

We typically run pink slicks, the track is 1 week old so we didn’t use slicks on Wednesday night, but below is the setup derived by Matt Chambers and works really well for me. His differences – no alum bulkhead, spindles down, 3 ball stud washers on the rear hubs, and i think his ride height is 24/23 (i think), and I’m sure his esc doesn’t have as much drag brake. Our track is Small and tight, usually there are more than one 180 deg corners, high 13 to low 14 second laptimes in mod 2wd, 25-26 laps in 6 minutes. Like Jim said tho, I'll usually go a bit thicker once the bite gets crazy, which it will at some point, but tires

shocks > camber links is the order of importance at any track IMO. If you're going to try it, make sure your shock bottoms are new/in good shape so they don't get yanked out (from my recent experience)... This works for me here, it may or may not work elsewhere - Lars Johnson
