NYGP - 360v2

Here's my setup from NYGP with the RC Xpress XQ10R. I was good until the greasy condition came up strong. At that point I couldn't find the right balance between enough steering and being too edgy. As this was my first experience on "big race grip", I was really pleased by how well the car is suited to the conditions! Just need to see more of these conditions to develop a good setup in the greasy feel.

On to the next one!

Notes on the setup:
yes, shock towers! I prefer them as it's possible to space out the shocks from the tower and the car handles the small curbs better.
my own rear diff cams to raise the diff as much as possible. Approximately 1mm higher.
custom rear tower to use same horizontal body post mounting as the X-Square. Krazed Builds cut these to my design.
1.6mm top deck. Cut from my design by Krazed builds. Gives a bit more overall grip, especially side bite.
RF mounts are 0.75mm pointed out with 0.5mm inserts pointed in for 2.75 degrees rear toe.
