Sounds kind of like the one track I go to but more traction I would expect.

Personally, I'd probably start with this setup:

Thought I may go with a bit lighter diffs to start with, maybe 10k 4 gear front and rear.

If the track has a lot of flat landing bit jumps, I'd probably consider some 2 x 1.7mm pistons on the rear as well

Yeah biggest thing i'd suggest and you probably already know this though, find out from those running the track what tires are good and start there.

The kit setup also isn't too bad either, with the front springs possibly feeling a bit light.
