TC3 Setup at SoCal Raceway

Hey everyone. I知 looking for suggestions on setting up my TC3 for SoCal Raceway. I知 going to be entering my first race in a couple of weeks here (maybe less) and was hoping to get a good starting point. I have the Sorex 36R tires already as well as the Associated threaded shocks and a Protoform Caddy CTS body (have the original Stratus, but haven稚 painted it yet). Everything else is bone stock as came in the standard TC3 kit. The motor is a Monster Stock currently sporting a 24t pinion (I have 26 and 27 available too). Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks!

There are some of the pros Socal set ups on the associated web page.
But remember you may not like the car set up the same as a pro.

I started racing there not too long ago and have a decent setup now. I have blue front and silver rear springs with 40wt oil. Shocks mounted in the middle hole of front and rear shock towers. Standard sway bars front and rear. About 1 degree of camber all around, 0 toe in the front, 2 degrees toe in the rear. 6 degrees caster (probably too much). Using 32/100 gearing with 64 pitch gears and a Mazda 6 body to top it off. I started with a front diff and later went to a front one way. It seems this track likes a front one way. If you are just starting you should keep the front diff for a while though. Its very different driving with a one way and it eats parts if you crash.
