Kyosho diff with MIP pick system.
I'm a 17.5 racer and currently have the MIp puck system in my Rb6. The kyosho diff is WAY better than the MIP (feels like aslowciated) and want to know if you have experience with the kyosho balls/rings/thrust in the MIP puck system?

So I finally got around to giving my Mid Mount a run on our local club track (not in a racing conditions so no timing)
I can see the potential in the MM working on it. I did make some adjustments while trying it and the car felt better as I did them.
It will be something I slowly work on but for now the RM still feels the best for me.

What exactly are the spacers under the rear toe block doing? Is that reducing the anti-squat angle therefore reducing anti-squat? Is there a natural anti-squat built in if there are no spacers present? It looks like the inserts in the a aftermarket hangers could possibly slightly adjust the rear arm angle mismatch at the case?
Also what is the easiest way to gain side bite in mid motor other than adjusting anti-squat?
Thanks in advance.

Easiest way for a gain in side bite in MM?
Not sure if outside of an anti squat change, if there is one way that's easiest over another.
You could try changing the rear toe in, or changing the camber, or changing the rear camber link for more or less camber gain.
For me I usually run less rear toe in. I normally run on a high bite indoor track, where 3 degree of rear toe in might be too much, so I'll run 2-2.5 for rear toe in. Works for me while leaving the rest of the rear end setup as I'd normally run it.

Easy to drive mm setup...
Front shocks 1.5/2 tapered 32.5 20mm shock length
White spring camber center on bulkhead 1mm up both sides
Shocks middle top outside on arm
25/2
Rear shocks 1.5/2 tapered 27.5 27mm shock length
White/gold spring second from inside on tower outside on arm
Rear hangers I run D in/D out with .5 degree rear hubs
Rear link outside on rear bulkhead very inside on hub
1 mm up on the inside n 2 mm up on the hub
Arms centered and hubs forward 24mm ride height front/rear
Give it a try has plenty of steering can be a touch aggressive.

I agree that it is completely different than what we have. Not that you might not found a golden secret but it is way different that what we run and see other run around here on medium high to high bite. The key though is finding what works for you. Never will one setup be for all.
In preparation for the SC6 coming in the near future I am trying to find a base setup for it -- nothing out there as of yet.
I am using the Cody King MM setup on my RB6 and it was solid out of the gate. Since the SC6 is essentially the same platform would it be wise to start with the same MM setup?

Quick update, the kyosho rings do not fit, you have to use the MIP rings with these outdrives. I miss my Kyosho ball diff........

The pucks is a must have for me. I do not miss replacing the driveshafts every month (with the stock Kyosho drivetrain with had flat spots fast).
