Now we are running the SRAMOS setup--green front/red rear tekno springs, Fioroni pistons, 37.5f/32.5r oils at 25 ride height. Nose dive non existent!! I have read and created a monster database of notes from page 1 of this forum--I'm pretty sure SRAMOS was one of the first to go to the red rears. I had my doubts until I saw him doing well at some big races--so we decided to try it and its the BOMB!!
BTW--our battery is in its stock position, no weight put in the rear (some guys have been putting servos in the rear location). Our truck is lightened a bunch but I know SRAMOS truck is around 7lbs (ours is like 6.6ounces). Still doesnt seem to matter--his setup just works for us, period.
This is my 14y/o sons truck--we are serious racers--zero bashing--truck ONLY run indoors--he was fortunate enough to TQ and win the main on Friday night at Trackside Hobbies against some very accomplished A-drivers!!
Id say most of our success has come from switching over to SRAMOS setup--but that doesn't mean it works for everyone.
There are lots of good setups out there--I'd say try a few of them out and see how they work for you based on driving style, etc. But make sure you when you pick a setup that you copy it exactly--these guys spend TONS of time with dialing in their rides and even 1 spring/oil change, camber change etc can alter the dynamics dramatically!!
Biggest problem now is the Fioroni's have been out of stock for a while--you can blame SRAMOS for that!!!!
