I have to ask because it has always confused me. Is the chassis for the T2 '009 US Foam Spec #301126 same one used for the T2 '008 US Foam Spec? I see by X-Ray's website it says they are the same but it sometimes gets confusing and I want to know for sure.

Well from my personal experience is makes the opposite end of the car roll more. If the rear diff is raised it will dive in more on the front and if the front is raised the rear will roll more than if it were lowered. I usually run the diffs in the lower position.

Try the lower position, it made my car feel much better for me. The car has ALOT more roll, more grip and was more stable. But you may have to make the car alot softer to make the car bite in, otherwise the car will just want to keep rolling through the corner. I dont think ill ever go back to the heigher position. My lap times went down arounf .3-.5 of a sec per lap This was in mod and 10.5, on a low-med traction asphalt track.

Hi Guys
some says For tighter Tracks shorter wheelbase is better...
how about setting the wheelbase ?
should we set only back end or can we change the Front also?
If so what is the effect
Thanx in advance

When using the Lipo balancing chassis weights, do you still have to add weight to the battery side to balance the car? And if so how much over weight is the car after it is balanced? I am currently useing the lipo tray by PPD Billet and have the battery at an angle and the car is 62 grams over weight. I am looking for a way to balance the car and still be close to the minimum weight. Any one have a better way of balancing without being so over weight?
