1/8 onroad setup help

the track i race at is halifax in the uk only at club level so i would think you
could class this as very low grip tyres mainly 32f/35r

hey rick u might want to try 35shore all around or 32 all around, if u are not really good at setting up your car using softer shore in the front can cause the rear to be highly unstable I see this so many times guys having so much trouble with the rear then I make them put the same shore all around and it goes away just a thought, and I will give u another tip people overlook a lot can be done from your remote to help with the car, example a lot of guys run out and think they need the fastest servo"s not true at all I use a .15 speed and still on some tracks I slow it down if its too fast it causes what I call the whip effect and its throwing the rear around too fast... also play with the steering epa u don't need 100 percent to make the car turn sometimes just by lowering the epa makes the car a lot more stable and it can take as alittle as just going from 95 to 93 to make a big diff. ...just some tips

No I would not mess with the curve and settings like that just the speed and era, remeber the speed of these cars just alittle touch and the car moves in that direction so having a fast servo just makes it whip around more..

thanks for the tips ralph already got the servo at 40% speed do not like a responsive car, and last time testing found 90% epa gave more steering than
100% but maybe more testing to find best epa. as for tyres just followed
everyone else so far but defanatly worth a try. on a side note does adding or
taking out caster effect the optimal epa iam thinking too much caster plus
large steering angles could reduce the contact patch and reduce total steering
100% but maybe more testing to find best epa. as for tyres just followed

Get your car to push, first. What car and overdrive are you using?
"Firmer" front tires with stiffer front springs. "Softer" rear tires and softer rear springs. Once it pushes - then work the setup until you are comfortable with the grip and front rear balance.
EPA, servo speeds, caster and camber are "fine tuning" elements. Get your car to push first.

Do they race there?

a pic of the sway bar I made for my mrx6 so much better then the stock wire
