Oh, well that is completely different. I personally wouldn't try to tune that out with the shims. IMO I would toss that setup, and trade it for something off petitrc that is on a similar surface to what u run it on. I think u will be able to tune it better from one of those setup's.

we are usually in the back corner of the pit area by the dirt oval when you come down.

Default 210 RTR Gear Diff

I opened up the gear diff, and noticed it only has 1 cross shaft axle with 2 small spider gears, does not look like your typical diff set up with 2 cross shaft axles with 4 small diff gears. Is this normal on RTR ? Or am I missing some parts in this diff ?

I have been trying to take the roll out of the rear. It rolls then spins. Ive been trying to calm it down. Does the hevy weight oil up front help. I have 40 up front with the light brown springs and 1.3 4 hole pistons and I have 21 grams up front and I cant get it down to ride height. I to have been using this set up with some tweeks. I been trying to get high roll center in the rear. My links are all the way out and shocks lay down all the way. Tried putting 4 mm under the inner ball studs too.

Here is my setup for carpet.

I had the same experience the one time I raced on carpet. The car would roll in the corner then spin out completely. I was so confused because I thought I had gobs of traction running gold barcodes on carpet. I went so far as to get rid of almost all the droop I could, and still had the problem. It wasn't until the track owner walked up to me with a can of Gojo and told me to try it on my rears that I figured out what was wrong. As much traction as I thought I had, it wasn't enough! That Gojo turned those barcodes into a mushy circle shaped pile of traction! No more spinning out after that! In fact, my biggest problem was traction rolling (which is not a bad problem to have). Moral of the story? Maybe you don't have as much grip as you think, even if its more than you're used to on dirt.

I want to make it back to that carpet track some time, only with mini pins and cut staggers instead of the dirt setup I usually run.

Looking at the picture on the box it looks like it only comes with 1 - if so I think you can just buy the shaft and gears as a set if you want 4. The extra gears just help take the load if you run higher torque motors than supplied
