I am running the local parking lot races and we have started a mini class. We are following the TCS serieswith the exception of aftermarket shocks are allowed due to the cost of Tamiya ones. What spare and hop up options should I keep in stock? We are trying to keep it as a low cost fun class.
I also would like some advice for a base setup for my m05 pro. It was built to instructions specs. I would like to keep the costs down, but I have read I do need the aluminum steering posts. Are there any other mandatory items I need to add? What is a good base setup for sealed asphalt surface kind of low traction. We have started to spray soda to increase traction. After I get a good base setup I will be sharing with everyone.
My current set up is...
M05 pro built to instructions, nothing different.
Venom 4000 20c lipo
Stock silver can
Kit tires
Tekin fxr
Spectrum radio
Thanks for your input.
