HPI D compound vta tires.
40/30 oil--kinda light for carpet
It's handled well, but the rear still doesn't rotate as much as I would like. I'm gonna try a 1mm shim on the under the ballstud of the rear upright in hopes of fixing that.
You've sparked my curiosity as to your setup.

I'm starting with 2mm over ride height for droop. I don't use roll bars at all. The hpi tires don't seem to generate enough grip to necessitate roll bars. I really need the rear end to come around at mid corner and corner exit. If the 1mm spacer doesn't get me moving in the right direction, I'll just put some heavier oil in the rear.

I was able to get my TB03 into the 10th spot of the A-main this weekend at the Emerald City Classic in Seattle. It was a blast
Setup:
Front- 40wt oil, Tamiya blue spring, no spacers on IFS, stock lower shock arm mount. #4 camber hole, 2mm spacer under inner ball stud, 1.5 deg camber. Yellow roll bar. Slipper spool,
Rear- 30wt oil, RSD Silver spring, #4 upper shock mount, stock lower shock arm mount, 1mm spacer under inner ball stud, #4 camber hole, 2 deg camber, yellow roll bar, ball diff
HPI X-Pattern tires!
I decided to go with x patterns for the weight savings so that I could use a full size pack. They felt like they gave the tranny a little more snap.
I love driving this car.

No, TB-evo III is racing version of TB-02, they have many common parts. Take a look at Tamiya web, you can compare manuals
