Firstly I would like to say a Big Thanks for everyone who has posted in teh this forum. It has been a great help in staring my 12th scale racing.

Now that I am totally addicted to 12th scale racing after just 2 events I am looking to start improving my car

What I am wondering is other than Mark Payne's blocg are there any other good tutorials on what changes in the setup do to the handelling of the car.

Specifically I am looking for cornering speed and the ammout of push through a corner on power and off.


Thanks'

P.S. I have a CRC Carpet knife 3.2R with 10 degree blocks, Purple Fronts and pink rears. Checkpoint Money motor, 100/29 spur/pinoin on a mid byte track. I can get up to top speed about 3/4 of the way down the straight and still have good accelleration in the corners

I am currently pulling 10.5 to 11.6 sec laps where the top drivers are pulling 9.5

Thanks again
