We started out to run 3port engines to keep the speeds down but it looks like anything is ok now...if you can use the power!

How does the electric compare? 4s batteries?
Hi,

yes a little "smooth" engagement.. than a 4x4 ..but a "Classique" is slower than a 4x4 about 2s-3s max per laps...

don't miss the tires are much,much,much important with the toe and a little of camber
I use around of 3° of toe in sometime less and 1.5 of camber
tires front generaly 40° in 65-66mm ...
for the front,if you turn to much take hard tires,42° or 45° or 50°..

rear start with 35° in 74mm

for the rear ..if you sliperry when take throttle,test 33° or 30° or 25° and a little softer the centax..
when the rear is bumping/jumping (on the track listen the motor) take more hard tire 37° or 40°...

don't miss the tweak..

I use a gear diff with 300.000 silicone grease


the french champion use a RBC11..
