I miss typed my ride height issue 0.1-0.2mm difference sorry. I thought I had it sorted out but I changed to a non-steped ride height gauge and it shows that it's still there.

I am going to call today and get a set of ride height adjusters and see if that will eliminate the problem.

My setup is:
Base setup in kit instructions,
no changes

Carpet Track/RC Madness CT, tight smooth, medium grip

Liliac Front
Yellow Rears
Paragon 1/2 on front, Full rear, no glue

CO27 32/88 1.80 rear tires front(can't remember)
GTX max punch
IB's all the way back
Futaba Digital servo 9...
Kimbrough servo saver CRC carbon brace
z-1 no change to throttle or steering curve
12b Body


Car is blanced perfect, track width corrected for new jaco's
On power push, slight tweek left front, rideheight off
You can go to 1 more kingpin shim on each side. make sure that when your car is at ride height that your rear pod is level. The way to do this is to check the 4 corners of the pod with your ride height guage when your car is at ride height. If it is higher in the front of the pod, this will make the car push on power.

they are .220 for the thickest and .120 for the thinnest. They get smaller in
.020 increments.

I would like to thank Dave Irrgang (AKA Diffdude) over at Irrgang Racing for his awesome customer service, I contacted Dave over the weekend about a faulty delrin shock cap & I received a new replacement 4 days later, By far some of the best customer service out there!!!!!
