Here's a medium-high bite stock setup for you indoor guys to try. It's all stock oem kit pieces with the addition of the aluminum C & D for the extra tunability. Normally I try not to run stock but some days you gotta measure up the young'ns. :D This setup netted me an 18.3 this past weekend which I believe is about the fastest single lap on our current layout but also probably best overall average as well. I'm still playing with the front end to improve consistency but I figured somebody might benefit from it.

Front:

camber -1, toe 0

flat arms, flat tower

kick up 25, caster 5

3mm trailing, no bump steer spacers

axle middle, caster block centered

ackerman roughly 2mm (scrounged around various washers for this https://www.youtube.com/user/NewRedHobbies/ and also at this unfortunately nasty link - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4m...mwQ0mgw/videos

Update 2015.01.03

Just an update on this. Bumped front oil to 32.5 and weight is 1592g.. whippin up on all the skinny chicks.

Also flipped the steering rack over. Not sure it did much for bump steer but can't say any noticable negative effects either.

Also moved battery forward 2 thin foamies. Would only recommend this if you are running the RM arms as it can get a little light in the rear on some braking points. So looks like i'll be picking up some rm arms.
