Adding toe helps to "lock in" the rear and give better traction.
What difference should I feel with the aluminum arm mounts D in D in, vs the stock setup?
Hey guys thought I would post this link to a video up for anyone interested in seeing the difference in running your battery Inline vs. Sideways in a 2wd buggy. Hope this helps answer some question anyone may have on the subject.

great video/comparison. sideways pack looked like it flew better over the big jump, but definately looked slower overall.
Rb6 picks system
Anyone that's put an avid captured thrust bearing in one of the MIP systems know if the avid rb6 thrust bearing is correct for this. It's a little larger than the tlr associated one. 2.5 mm to 2.6 mm
Thanks panda
Wide gives more steering, narrow gives more rear grip.
D-in/D-in combination narrows the hing pins but still keeps the same rear toe. It will make the car role more/easier in the rear going through a turn. Generating more traction.

Just ordered a rb6. Pretty excited for it to get here.

Good deal Panda! What Tracks do you run in Michigan? If you need a base setup let me know. I am pretty much a regular at the Clubhouse. I run mine in mid motor in Stock Buggy.

Pretty much dirt burners, although I have been looking to try clubhouse. Both are about the same distance from my house. This is kinda my "getting back in" car, as I really never raced buggy before.

Thats cool. Last time I was at Dirt Burners was for the Series race in Nov. You should definitely try The Clubhouse. Very nice facility. They are having their first anniversary race on Dec. 20th. Should be a good turn out. The Thanksgiving race had 276 entries. If you need any setup just let me know. Also I would invest in the alum rear hangers. They have alot of adjustability. Then the steering rack.

Go back to page 734, first post on page by nastynate. This guy runs at my track along with Zack Rogers. Between the two of them all of us local drivers get tons of good info. These two are constantly working on set ups, changing this and changing that. Right now the consensus is Cin/ Cin. Read Nates post he talks specifically about the hangers.

Havn't driven any RC in a while. But I remember the last time I took my kit set up rb6, it was very 'loose' on power (no steering input) and very hard to drive. My b4.2 as comparison on the same tyres was on rails that same day. I'm pretty sure I had the lipo as far back as possible.
what I wanted to know is before I take my cars out again, what changes should I make to make this car more driveable. I do not want to go to the dark side again. Track is medium grip 90% of the time, outdoor dirt.
I'm thinking of;
more front droop
more rear toe......got no idea how to do this on this K car
softer rear spring.....or harder?
weights placed in the rear somewhere
