I think the car is very sensitive to adjustments. Like I said earlier, with the kit tires on the car, when the bite came up, it was catapulting itself in the sweeper
I may need to dampen the kingpins to settle it down, but I also need to dial a touch of slide into the rear end. I think I have it set too loose at the moment, but I dont know
Speed channels 15 min video going quickly over the races this year had an interesting comment. This would be regarding the wieght balance of the car which is approx 52% to the rear, 48 up front. Comment was, to reduce the oversteer, skinnier tires might be in order for next year.... that would be interesting change if RC followed suit...

ok, back to your regularly scheduled forum....
