If the hole in the wheel is to big I wouldn't worry about it because it will become centered on the hex instead.

Nice race. I notice around 6.10 one of the driver causes the bug in front of him to turtle and he didn't even have the courtesy to stop and let the guy pass him. 
Built my RB6, first time it touched the track was on the practice day for the first race in the big regional series. I had heard from others that the car had a LOT of steering and I like a mellower setup. Track was high traction clay with several sections where traction rolling was a problem, and only 1 big jump. I used the setup suggested in the manual but made a few changes.
4 degree inserts in front hubs (with bulkhead set on 25 for a total of 29 degrees)
white front spring
white rear spring
2 internal limiters in rear shocks.
21mm rear ride height
23mm front ride height
1mm under all upright ballstuds
car was really good, steering was kind of mellow and the rear stayed planted. Against this crowd I would usually be struggling to even make the A. This race I qualified 5th and finished 4th overall. The rear ride height was really low but it seemed to help avoid traction rolls in the sweeper. Here is a video of the A2 main, I start 5th with the orange, yellow, and green body...

The car doesn't seem to much, if any, front droop (built with no limiters, medium shock eyelets) - Is anyone using the longer shock eyelets or unscrewing them to gain a bit more front droop, or finding that more droop is not needed?
I've yet to get the car out on an actual track, so this is just observation on the bench and tooling around the driveway at this point.

after i put on the longer eyelets the car seemed lazier and didnt transition as well.
less droop will cause alot of steering which we're tuning out with the 2/4deg caster blocks.

Definitely has a lot of steering, I can tell that from just tooling around on the driveway. Suppose will hold off bench tuning until i have time to get to the track.
Is anyone just going with flipping the bukhead/kickup block to 30degrees (29/30 pretty darn close)

You can run the suspension hanger backwards (30) and run the 0 inserts, but this will give the car more front kickup, resulting is more off power steering. You can go that route, but you will be making two changes at once: (+5 caster and increased kickup angle).
Nothing wrong with it... it all depends on how you want your buggy to drive. Even though the car has mega steering already, I am planning on moving to 30/0 caster to see how the car does with more kickup.
