I'm guessing this is because the suspension is so hard from the preload, the chassis just rotates around the tire and doesnt go into the suspension.
I already tried running only the center spring, but this is a disaster!
Next I'm gonna try to drive the droop like I would any other front end. this means no preload and almost no droop.
I'm also gonna try driving "normal" tires, jaco's, so I know for sure it isnt a tire problem.
Will be very interested to hear your finding on jaco's
Was planning on running crc as my test might order some this week
Been playing with droop and the setups u can find on the internet have 8mm droop or 7mm
These work fine when.running 3.4mm ride height not 5mm which would need on outdoor tracks
2.5 or 3.0 is normal camber from again the setups on the internet
Even the rc12 5 and 5.1 they used 3 degrees
