I had some time yesterday to try the lowrc setup on the 32 sorex and HOT track(40+ deg. C) .

I used the Protoform ltrc lexus body

Front had alot of grip but rear had almost nothing while off power/ coasting. on power it had some grip.

I tried to stiffen front and more toe in rear and from symmetric to assymmetric on dampers and it only made front grip more and rear more loose.

The tires are really worn now, lasted 5x 5min runs.1 & 2nd were only runs that were somewhat possible to drive, tires wore so fast.

On the 2nd run I tried warming the tires to 60deg.c with additive and it was a bit better but nothing too good.


I dont have any idea what to do, the race is on saturday.

(It is on a different track that will be sprayed with some kind of traction aid, the track I tested was clean but no traction stuff added)

The top deck is cut at the front (not all the way, only the "open" part) -would it make sense to cut the rear also?
