2 degrees of toe out is going to make the car hard to drive. Try to keep it at 0-.5 per side. I like to run a red center spring and the tall ball stud. Make sure your pod is level at ride height. This should make a drastic improvement on the handling

Ran my first 1/12 race yesterday. My 12rr was on rails, it was the most fun I've had in RC in quite a while. TQ and win!

A big Thank You to the guys at BMI! Really good job on the design, keep it up!

Did I gave you wrong ones? Check your pack.
Mine was 2.0mm and 1.5mm.

I will be there but i am not racing. Butter is running my DB10RR as he is going to the birds with it. He is running the DB12RR also and i am going to be helping with setting cars up. Tires are hard to come by these days. I have some BSR's in stock but thats about it.

Are you carrying BSR 1/12th tires as well? I've been interested in trying those.

I have been thinking about it. I have been having a very hard time getting the Jaco tires. I may start to offer both brands.
