Here's what I ran this past weekend at 360 Raceway with the updated car...
-Front-
4 deg caster
5 deg reactive blocks
-1.25 deg camber
.020 BMI spring
.010 spring sag
#3 SureLube on king pins
servo on angled mounts (gonna try flat next time out)
Parma Magenta tires (41.6mm)
-Rear-
Hot Bodies shock w/ Losi 40wt oil and ASC gold spring
ASC shock mount raised with 2mm shims and medium ball stud on shock mount
shock all the way back on chassis
battery full forward
.070 side plates
#4 SureLube in damper tubes
Parma Grey tires (43.6mm)
Use whatever shims/ride height adjusters to get 4mm ride height. I also ran a Parma Speed 8 LW body since I was running 17.5.

Hey Guys,
Sorry for coming in so late.
I know this questions has probably been answered, but is there a set date for the brushless motor version DB12R? Getting pretty anxious to run 12th scale.
Congrats on the TQ & Win Scoob!

Great feed back guys, thanks for the carpet set-up info.
Quick question...is the new car only for brushless motors, or can a person run a old-school brushed motor without any set-up or handling problems. What changes would have to be made (spacing or rear pod?)
Thanks Greg G

Not sure what it's equivalent to as far as other damper fluids. It's a product from IRS and I think Jason might sell it as well.

It's the 3rd item down on the page.
And the car should be just fine with brushed motors as well.
