There's no real need to setup camber since it's adjusted with the inserts and for toe you can just use 3 wheel bearings and the tc setup station.

So i think they might offer some kind of adapter bushing to the tc setup station similar to what they did for the XB4 rear axles.

I have put a thin layer of it on the side walls of the rear tires to prevent them from damage.
Rubber tire glue & Hudy body repair can also be used.

Highly likely that Hudy will come with specific tools now that xray/hudy has an F1 car. If you have the car, why not sell specific tools for it.

Pretty sure Hudy body repair and shoe goo is the same.

Why not use CA glue?

CA gets brittle and hard, rubber and shoe goo stays a more flexible.

As long as it is a low profile servo you will be fine.

So what wing are you guys using? Anyone have traction role issues? If so what did you do to prevent it on a high bite track?

Tamiya front wings can be bolted right on , it is a direct fit.

It will need some trimming on the body, and you have to make the front body post longer.

I assume this is for rubber tires.
Less camber, harder front tires, CA glue on the side walls of front tires.
And of course, go as low with ride height as is permitted.
As for wings, the stock one in the rear.
In the front, also the stock, or any Tamiya wing, then you may need to trim the front of the body, and possible relocate the body post.
