Hey guys, i had my first complete race with my F1 yesterday, went from no grip in my last meets to winning my race after reading all of the tips on here, and watching all of the videos for the rear pod.

Now i need to add front grip lol I tried Ride R1s, and Pit Shumi 577 and 573, the car would push in turns, under power, and under braking. I don't think it's my tires anymore.

my front is at 4.5mm high, rear 5.5, i tried little droop and a lot, barely any change. I went from 2 degrees of camber, to 1, the tires are wearing evenly across the surface at 1 degree. I have 2 degrees of Toe out, with the Tamiya Silver spring, and to stop the bouncing i use AW grease from tamiya.

How do the offset front axels affect? Can we adjust Caster with the stock F104 arms? should i consider the exotek arms?
