Yeah it was a C2, tried it with 4499's and red springs all round and it didnt make any difference. I was racing indoors on carpet so my ratio wasnt quite that low but the c2 was flat mid range but was very strong top end, could of just been a duff motor but i wasnt the only person using one at the time and other peeps thought the same as me. Everyone else uses V2's here, i'm not a fan so the reedy works for me.

Guys I really need some setup help here. I have been trying to dial in my Mi2 to this one track for the last 4 or 5 meetings and nothing seems to work. Weylin has helped me with some setups but I'm still having lots of trouble.
Basically, I've lost all turn-in and nothing I change seems to make much difference. I have been using brakes on a lot of corners to slow the car down - most of the other guys running stock don't have to touch the brakes!
Even with brakes, the car still pushes into turns.
I have attached a map of the track with the turns numbered so you can see what areas I'm talking about.
The car has lots of push entering turns 1,2,7 & 8 and lots of power-on understeer on turn 6.
I've also attached my "best" current setup - it will take too long to list all the things I've tried.
cheers,
Bender

Bender,
Do you have excessive chassis rub in the front ? Maybe you have too much droop in the rear, and the car is dumping in the hairpins.

just a little testing update for you spool freaks....LOL The oneway set up that I posted on www.gearchart.com also works with a spool and no other changes to the set up. Just take out the oneway and put in the spool.....but due to the fact that 99% of the guys on here are Adrian followers LMAO just follow the set up with your exsisting spool
PW- The stickers will be on the car in the next hour or two. I couldn't sticker up a body that wasn't mine at the Reedy

What do you mean by "dumping", is that too much weight transfer?

Rear:
35wt oil
5mm ride height
Black swaybar
shock mount on lower arm 2nd hole in from outside (most important)
Spool (locked diff)
Battery moved back to middle
