Nice! I purchased your v1 mount a few weeks ago. Will you sell just the servo saver cam? Or is this being sold as a package?

Do you guys think the tc6 has more mechanical grip of other chassis'? For the life of me I can't stop my tc6 from traction rolling. Keep in mind that this is the original tc6, not the 6.2. My local track I'd super high grip asphalt, tried harder springs, different roll centers ( both hinge pins and camber links). Retired the car for a few months and then brought it back as an RSD6.2 with the newer shock towers and newer camber link bulk heads. Still traction rolling with various roll center configurations. the only thing that works is no traction compounds on a year old Solaris hard tires. My sorex 36r and Solaris med make the car so twitchy. And rolls in sweepers and two wheels in hairpin corners. Any help would greatly be appreciated. I usually give the associated a good attempt in practice and the first qualifier but because of the traction issues, I switch out to the xray t4 because that car is dialed. Just wanna give this chassis a fair chance.
Here's a quick run down of my current setup
Front:
-Spring is silver associated
-Offset 2b arm mounts with 1 mm spacers front and rear
-Camber link in v2 position with 3mm spacer under inside and 1mm spacer outside
-shock position is third hole fron inside and outside on arm
- wheelbase is 2mm behind arms
- shock oil 40 wt associated
-spool
Rear:
-spring is silver associated
-2.5 degree rear toe
-2b arm mounts front with 1mm spacer, offset 2b mount rear with 1mm spacer.
-camber link is v2 with 1mm spacer under inside and 2mm spacer under outside on the inner hub hole.
-shock position is second hole from inside and outside on arm
-Wheelbase is 2mm in front of arms
-shock oil is 40 wt associated
-spec r gear diff with 1000 wt associated

Try running 0B all around, or even 3As. Try some thicker front oil and also a softer top deck. Softer chassis cars tend to have less roll and this can help in high grip conditions.
You can also lay in your front shocks which will take away some mid corner front traction to lessen the snappiness that causes traction rolling.
Lower your front inner camber link in order to reduce some front body roll.
Lastly, try spacing out your front wheels with hex spacers, maybe 0.5 on each side.
Oh, and springs. Try different ones. The Yokomo seem to do really well in high grip. Our green front/ yellow rear might be good for high grip.
Droop, run 1.5 over ride height front, 2 over rear.

I agree, the roll center's are too low for high grip conditions, and the suggestions mentioned above are the way to go !
@ Christian - when will the RSD EVO2 complete kits be back in stock ? my trigger finger is waiting on the buy button ;D

I've had to put the remainder of the needed weight farther forward or rearward and more off-center than I wanted (both my USGT and my VTA needed a ton of weight to be legal).

I am currently having a slight push in high speed sweepers in my USGT car (TC6). I'm currently running a slipper spool up front and it's very tight (as you'd expect). Rear is a ball diff and is fairly loose. I'm considering adding a gear diff up front with some very heavy oil in it. My hope is that it would give "just enough" to help alleviate this slight push, but still remain solid enough to provide needed stability.
I'm curious if someone could make a good recommendation for a starting point? The surface is low-med grip asphalt. I should also point out that I'm pretty happy with the handling of the car otherwise, but I wouldn't mind just a touch more turn-in.

Hey all
ln our race the minimun weight is 1350 gr.
My TC6.1 WC with Speed Passion 13.5, Cirtix Esc, Savox 1251 MG is about gr.900
Lipo NVISION 5500 - 90C 300 g
Body g 100
Sorex 36 g 120
Total weight 1420 g
Which is the weight of your cars, TC 6, TC6.1 and WC ready to run?
Other friends racers with XRay- Yokomo- Sakura add weight to achieve the minimum required. Any tips?
Thks
