If you are going to go that route, then don't forget the band-aids.

For those asking for set-ups and are curious about the development/testing status, here's a snapshot of where we're at for indoor med bite clay:

Front

Red Spring, 4 hole #55, 25wt, location is #2 (middle tower), middle arm
Long front camber link with 2mm under front bulk head
zero toe
-1 degree camber
2mm bump steer at spindle
25 degree kick
Ride height 24mm

Rear

Yellow Spring, 4 hole #56, 20wt, location is #2, inside
Short link (#2, E, which is outer middle row of hub holes) w 1mm washer at hub
Low Roll Center 3.5 Degree tow rear pivot. (4.0 degree roll center comes stk in kit)
2.5 degree anti squat
Hubs 1mm forward of middle

Battery forward

Items of interest:

The rear pivot width is narrower than previous XXX and wider than BK2, therefore, slightly stiffer spring needed (Yellow)

The car really seems to like a good amount of camber gain in the rear, and
only a slight bit in the front.

The speed the car carries through corners is incredible and is very noticeable.

20 degree kick with 10 degree spindle carriers seems well suited for higher grip tracks. the 25 degree kick yields more consistent grip. We are offering 0, 3, 5 and 10 degree spindle carriers along with 20, 25 and 30 degree kick options.

That's all for now! I hope everybody had a great Christmas and thanks for all the interest in the the car and TLR!

the springs have the same rate (per color) but have larger diameter for the bigger bore shocks.

Default TLR 22

I live in the midwest and all our Nitro tracks are down for winter. Now we have a killer indoor electric facility, and I am waiting on the 22. Ahhhh! I would pay $1000 for this thing right now, just so I can get to the track and racing.

OH well I guess, flying to CRCRC for the Nitro Champs in a few weeks for some racing action. Guess Ill have to wait til then.

I am currently running the rear engine configuration, but I have a mid motor car built up also. I have run the mid motor and it is very, very fun to drive. We are fortunate enought to have our UK and European drivers shaking down the mid motor set-up while we refine the rear motor here in the states. I see alot of people running the mid motor here in the states so we will be testing it to develop a clay-indoor type of set up. I appreciate the aluminum chassis more and more every time I run the car. Precise yet very forgiving. I am surprised with what I can get away with with this car, yet is is still very fast. It is agile yet forgiving. Very fun to drive and inspiring.....
