I'm so happy! I found a bunch of guys that race on road locally! It's VERY informal with a little bit of everything, 1/8 on road, gt8, buggies w/ street tires, & even some 1/5 scale 2wd gas cars! Now that I've found some place to play with a street car, & found I should be able to use the Losi l8ight front bumper & rear body mount, what is the best way to limit the ride height? I raised the spring perch all the way up & set the droop screws so I only had a few mm of droop. My fronts were pretty much sitting on the droop screws, but the rears were sitting on the springs, not the screws. With this kind of ride height in the rear do I need shorter shocks for the rear? Will a gt body fit over the rear shock towers?
