The setups were constantly evolving every round at the Cactus. I believe BT will post the final setup on the AE site this week. I'm not sure what you guys expect to use from the set up unless you are running on a candy track though.

Oh no expectations what so ever especially since 1% of tracks in the usa have that same surface. However my shorty pack setup is close to what Maifield was just running and Im on medium/high bite clay tracks.

Where are you checking?
If your looking for the AE site to show in stock we will be the last place for that to happen. We are shipping out every thing as soon as it arrives so it never shows in stock until we have fulfilled all the BOs.

Matt I'm using the theikle set up. 2 limiters in the fronts, 3 in the rear. Using green front springs and white in the rear. I put 35 wt up front and 32.5 in the rear last night, haven't tried it yet. I run I semi smooth indoor clay med-hi bite. I have m4 suburbs made into slicks all around. I run 13.5, no boost. I'm using a 75 spur/26 pinion.

In the handful of days I've had the car out to the track to start dialing it in, my setup headed to something really close to what was the "AE Cactus Setup" that NeoBuggy released. This is for OCRC with medium to high bite. That setup should have been the "kit setup" IMO, but everyone has their own needs and feel for vehicles. For now, seems lots of folks are happy around our parts with something close to that.

So i'm new to 2wd and can timing and all that. I'm running a Tekin rs gen2 with a reedy sonic 2 17.5. What kind of can timing is appropriate? Right now I have a 33t/72 installed.
