i never share my setup.. sorry.

but i give tons of advice to help dial yours in..

its kind of a black art imo.. for the mere fact that 'softening the rear' doesnt always give you more traction in the rear... contrary to popular belief. not to mention theres different ways to 'soften'

I think hanalic said it best a few weeks ago , his , Brent’s ,and my setups were so different when we raced it honestly came down to radio tricks that pulled out the win .
not to mention that was on a flowing open layout . As of right not our track is the highest grip in the USA ....which really isn’t a good thing for us .

I will upload my setup from this past weekend at NYGP (grey TrackGT carpet) very soon.
I didn't change much, only made front damper and spring a bit softer to my normal basic setup to get more front roll.

Raced against Brent and Hanulec this past weekend. I keept using my 300k front diff, but i really think that Brent's car had better rip out of the corner by using a spool.
Anyway i think this is only suitable for 25.5-21.5T motors. With 17,5T motor this will be to much with a spool.
But maybe something interessting to test for you all :-)

BW22 is/was designed for A800X Evo car. Not for A800FX car.
It will not fit (in front) without cutting of the part.
You can cut it via dremel as example and make it fit to the A800FX.

I thought I read somewhere in this thread that it could be used because I was having issues withba LCG battery staying in place. Maybe it was in the A800X thread
