Hey everyone just would like to let you know i really got a chance to get some time in with the ch12 this last weekend and got a really great set-up at the moment for med grip carpet.The track was bumpy so had to run a higher ride hieght than normal and more pod droop. HANDS DOWN THE BEST CAR I HAVE DRIVEN!!! . no joke!

here is my set-up:

front-
-1deg camber
0 toe
middle setting on castor
no shims under arm mount with standard post
4mm ride hieght
1mm droop
1.5mm flex plates firm position.
#4 shurlube in tube
169mm track width
laid down servo with tall silver ballstuds on spindles.

tires: bsr magentas 40.5mm( 1.594in) sauced 3/4 of tire
glued at the rim

rear-
30wt ae oil
crc white spring
4mm ride hieght
2mm pod droop / zero chassis sag
#4 shur lube in tubes
1.2mm carbon side links long position (soft)
172mm track width
tires: bsr magentas. 42.5mm (1.673in) full sauce.
glued at the rim.

body: protoform lightwieght amr-12

this set-up is very easy to drive and great cornerspeed . tires were great the entire 8 min.

BMI FOR LIFE!
