Red side springs, 3 turns down from top
20K lube (never thought about using it that way, i should give it a try)
White center
1.5mm rear droop
No glue on side walls (not a fan of doing this)

The front setup on my car is way off from the norm but works well for my driving style. I recently went to 1/10 king pins versus 1/12 to try and stop the traction roll issues with this car. Instead of traction rolling the car is lifting the inside tire on tight turns. I can stop it from happening but have to take the corner a little slower which has obvious outcomes.

Zero caster blocks
1 shim fwd, 2 back
red springs on 1/10 king pin
in-line axles
1.25 deg camber
Frnt, middle wheel base and track width

I recently rebuilt the car with a new chassis so i changed things up a bit. I'll probably migrate back to my old setup as i keep practicing. I think the first thing i'll try is 5 and 10 deg caster blocks.

If I can get a business trip planned around I'll be there. You going to Vegas?
