Loveless,
Checking to see you've found where the camber issue is? I believe you race at Crystal Park?? Let me know so I can help solve it and get it ready for the Kamikaze Race.
We were at CP yesterday. Swauger was testing the MRX4-X on the new layout.. Changed a few things from the previous set-up and by the end of the day, we have the car set where it's good for the new track.

Zytec
I tested first with the Central body and was good.
Swauger was testing with the Zytec. He had me use his body after, and found it to be smoother and predictable when negotiating around corners. It was also more stable especially in the new areas of the track where traction was still green.

Thanks Ron and to Mugen team for sharing the setup for Crystal Park. It made it easier to drive.

Can anyone teach me again about steering ackerman A,B,C ?
Is this ABC has something to do with aggressiveness vs smoothness of how the car turns ?
Or, is it something to do with the radius ( the radii ) how the car complete a circle ? I mean wide circle vs small circle ?
I am using C at the moment. I need more steering power ( without understeering ) at the middle of a tight corner. My intial steering is already abundance. The middle steering is problem, it turns wide..... very wide.
Thanks people.

Using (a) will give you smoother turn in and more on power steering coming out of the turns.....

Thank you Francis and Woodland Racer.
Francis, when you said " Using (a) will give you smoother turn in and more on power steering coming out of the turns..... "
Is that also means less push on middle cornering too ?
Thank you.
2ndly, still in regards to push out at the middle cornering problems, my friend(s) in track tell me to put more caster ( more incline ). Oppositely, I read roelof's webpage to put less caster ( more vertical ). Huh ???

Not sure what is causing the push in the middle of the corner for you.... I would just go with Ackerman A first and see how it goes. Some of the handling issues could also be just from the type of body you are using....

Hi Jon,

In connection with the type of body to use at CP... Swauger tested the new P909 body last weekend and was more happy with it all around (without any set up changes from the prior weekend).
I just thought of posting this here as an alternative or option on body choices... I personally am hoping to get one painted for myself to use this weekend.
