Automator - I talked to Jeff and if your interested he will put it up on the Corally USA site. However, the final setup is such a drastic change from any other setup that I would run at any track, I am not sure how much it will help you. If you are still interested though, let me know.

Thanks - Brad

Thanks

The car also had somewhat of a push that I also felt was taking away corner speed.

I'm not sure how to correct this problem so that the car isn't eating up a set of tires in 1 or 2 runs and pushing in the turns.

I'm running Jeff Brown's setup from the 06 Roar Asphalt Nats that was held at Speedworld Race Way.

Should I just try a completely different set-up? Any suggestions?

Much Thanx

Jeff Brown's setup is pretty darn good. I run a variation of it with other changes that he posted after the Nats. Did that occur at NorCal Hobbies? You just need to let me look at your car.
