Default TD Kit Availability

I read that everyone is having trouble getting TD kits. I visited my two LHS and they had kits galore. They had DEX410v.3, DEX210 and DESC410R in stock and on the shelf. RC Hobbies in Tamarac and Hobby Super Store in Plantation, Florida. They both have web-sites.

It was soo unseasonably warm today. Got to dust off the 210 and joined a bunch of buddies at the local outdoor track.
Didn't have any front wheels to mount ribs so I had to use indoor barcodes up front. Happy to say handling was good even without the right front tires. Can't wait until next test n tune when I have the right tires.
No popped ballcups or broken tranny cases.

Well, I started installing my MOS shocks. First, I Luv the color. They are super smooth. Your original cap, cap oring, lower cartridge cap, and ball socket with bumpstop needs to be transferred. I built mine the same as my kit shock, OMG, the difference in feel from one to the other. I can't wait to hit the track.

Been trying different things but right now I have
Front -2 camber
Dark Green spring
1.3x4 piston with 35wt losi
Mounted in the middle up top and inner down low
+1 washer to raise roll center
Little bit of toe out

Rear
-1 camber
Light red spring
1.2x4 piston with 25wt losi
Stock toe in

Full size battery is all the way forward. I moved the inner steering link forward from the middle and maybe got a little better turning. Also tried moving the shocks to the outer mount with no change. Raising the roll center helped a tiny bit. Tried all these by themselves. On power seems decent but if I overshoot a turn and let off it swings wide.

Have you ever tried a shorty? This car responds better top a shorty than any other car I have driven..

how much anti-squat in the rear? usually more anti-squat will let the car rotate better in the corners
