From what I remember, you used to have to make the A main in a class at a regional race to qualify for the nationals (2008/09 ish?). Not just attend a regional. So it has become much more lax.

The stiffer front springs should give you that harder initial turn in. A softer spring will give more overall, but should tame it at the entry. Also, if you're running the long rear shock bottoms,...

Yeah, on black carpet with the Tamiya tires I had to glue the front sidewalls and and run the wide, 6mm silver hexes. Traction rolling can still come up. Play with how much of the tires you compound.

Depending on the pill inserts used, the rear width changes. So the driveshafts will be closer at a narrower rear setting. Needs to have that variation for tuning options.

It's fine.
