The guy who's setup I copied runs modified and does very well
The only difference between our cars is he use 1B roll centers in the rear of both front and back end
So basically (Ft 0B, 1B),(Rr 0B, 1B) so I guess that creates anti-dive?
His car looks in comparison to mine that it drives straighter when on power

17.5 Blinky class. Large medium bite carpet track for club racing using Sweep Kitty Rug tires. Just tweek your front and rear camber settings to get it to handle to your liking. On high bite carpet tracks we will run a Jaco blue or Sweep 32. Car is fast and solid.

I use Keven Hebert's 17.5 Super Stock set up from the 2011 IIC on Jason's TC6.

That is going to push the motor, which is one of the heaviest items on the car aside from the batteries, outward away from the chassis centerline.
Companies like AE have done tons of R&D and design/engineering work to get the motor where it is.... I would be very carefuly making a change like that. It is going to change the balance and weight distribution of the car.

Anyone one know of any other short shaft pinions they have tried that give significant distance from the belt?

I had the same issue...... When i switched to a D3.... Just took a plastic bag and poked the motor shaft through. Keeps the metal shavings out of motor and bearing. Made the flat long enough that any pinion fits now.
BTW....... I just figured out why newer setups don't work. The 6.1 setups make my TC6 pushy. Just went back to the KHebert setup above and WOW! Car drives MUCH BETTER.

Any suggestions for where I should start gearing wise for a medium sized track? I haven't had a chance to run it since i'm waiting on a couple of parts but I will be using a 10.5t motor. Currently I have the stock spur coupled with a 20 tooth pinion. Does this sound like a decent starting point?
