For those interested in my Reedy Race setup, here it is.

I posted my origional setup which is fairly easy to drive, should be able to get around the track well for anyone. My Reedy setup is more aggressive and will be a bit harder to drive, but is capable of some fast laps.

Notes:
-5 cell chassis used, receiver mounted in front of
batteries.
-Upper deck was cut to allow more flex. (see pictures)
-Used 2 gears in rear diff.
-TRF shocks with stock Tamiya bladders with nothing
above.
-Tamiya pistons used.
-AE lower spring retainers, and shock ends with 2mm
cut.
-.5mm anti-squat.
-Front pivots raised .5mm + .5mm anti-dive.
-Steering limited 1mm on knuckle.

Reedy Updates:
-2* caster blocks.
-600wt front oil, 550wt rear oil
-Body position 34mm
-Ackerman still in back row but outside holes
-3* rear toe block
-Front swaybar mounted inner hole on arm
-Front arms forward
-Rear arms centered
-5mm ride height
-Droop 34.7mm
-Full throw on steering
-Camber 1.5* front, 1* rear
-Handout tire was a Sorex 36R premount on Speedmind wheel "SpeedRex 36"

Hope this helps!
