Default Reflex 12 tires

Adrian

The kit tires are Purple front and Gray rears. The are even turned down.
This is an excellent choice for carpet. You can go racing with these and then experiment with others like Cypruss suggested.

If you need a setup, this is from Cleveland:
Caster 3
Camber 1 1/2
020 AE front springs
.075 AE T plate
Batteries to the rear

A few modifications from the kit setup:
Front of shock mounted on chassis, not on T plate ball stud.
I drilled another hole in front of the antenna hole. Mount the Fr ball stud that the fr of the shock mounts onto into the antenna hole, and mount the antenna into the new hole.

Shorten the camber link (rear link) position. You will need to cut some threads off.

Get extra rear lower pod plates, this is a weakness on this car. Also don't bother with the supplied body posts , they'll break right off. use SM or CRC

The Trinity guys are using CRC damper tubes with Losi Med.
The stock tubes have only one grove for fluid retention

Thanks for all your help the past years!
