That's not a bad question. I need to figure out how to submit mine to Petit. I just sent mine in from the Halloween Classic and will post them here shortly. Here's Rob's from the Nats.

I would be curious to see a setup with the Excelerate tires, especially how much glue on the front tires.

pretty much because everyone only runs one of 2 setups LOL the car just works!!!!
as far as eXcelrate tires, I use the 3/4" strapping tape to create the amount of glue edge needed for the surface of the tire 3-4mm outer edge
sauced full to the glue
they are FIRE!!!!!!

Which of the 2 setups do I run with steel chassis, extended bump stops and Excelerate tires?

For those who haven’t tried the new camber wedges. These are an absolute must have for the prodigy line of cars. Thanks to Josh for making the prodigy line of cars even easier to work on and better to drive.

Well I ran my f1 for the first time today, at Apex. Things were not going great, and then had some locals step up and help me out a ton! I got lucky that Heath and Excelerate team driver Nick Skinner were there and willing to take on the challenge. Nick even replaced my chassis with the steel version while I ran touring car. Talk about an awesome brand ambassador.

Overall, I see what these cars are capable of when setup properly and manned by talented drivers. Makes me excited to continue to learn and figure this thing out, as I had a blast racing with it.

Go to Etsy.com and search for WebsterMods. I got the “pit buddy W/ Sauce Holder”
I asked him to modify it for my needs and he was very happy to accommodate

New bump stops and new steering bushings are on the website. I think it’s really cool that Josh is always working on something new that improves the prodigy platform. Looking forward to hearing more details about the new parts
