Thanks for the warm welcome guys, i'm very excited about the new car...i have been running a losi for about 4 years and it has treated me real well, but time for something different. Glad i was of help Mark.
I have been getting a foam car setup over the past few weeks, i think it is pretty close to where it needs to be, after the grand slam race i'l post the setup i have on it. I havn't gotten my rubber car yet.

Don't worry, you can still call me all hours of the night asking me for design and setup ideas. What was your quote, "you know how it works, you just can't make it work on the track." hahahaha F U

Could someone with an assembled S1 Mi3.5 post the original set up the car comes with?

I've got one. It gives alot more support to the rear of the body and makes the car feel a bit more stable.

Thought I'd post a link to Chris Grainger's current 'standard' carpet setup which he's been developing int he UK.
I'm told his car looked really good and was keeping Elliot Harper on his toes until he rolled it.

i need a gearing suggestion for SP 6.5 and 5.5 in the Mi3, and would switching back to 48 pitch gears be a good idea? outdoor asphalt prepped surface.
03-14-2009, 03:18 PM
for the 5.5 depending on the track size i would start around 8.0 to 8.5 for the 6.5 7 to 7.5 fdr, 48 pitch is all i run outdoors a 85t sour is a great choice for the MI3 with i i can get from the mid 4's to the 13.0's fdr range.

Why is he using HPI springs? What's wrong with Schumacher springs?

He is also using Yokomo oil and tamiya pistons as these were what he was used to when running for Yokomo.
He has said that he wanted to get the basics of the setup right using some of the parts that were 'known quantities' for him.
He is now going to start using Schumacher pistons and oils to get the combinations right.
He will also start outdoor testing soon.
