[QUOTE=B18C Turbo;4779601]just like shaun said, spool for high bite track, and if your track uses wood barriers, forget the spool, if you tap them once the car will explode.

Woa! I might try and fab up a slipper spool.

droop should be the easiest and quickest change. Your best bet would be to play with the droop in the rear first. How do you measure your droop and what is it at front and rear currently???

my current droop is 3mm rear and 2.5 front and just to say i had a spool

Try going to 3.5 or 4 in the rear. That will allow more weight to transfer to the front when you let off power giving you a little more steering. I tried this last weekend and it helped the car out a bunch. I started the day with 6mm up front and 6mm in the rear.....once I went to 5mm in the rear the car got better. I bet if I went to 4.5 it would have been 100% perfect rather than 98% I hope this helps you out some. I found that changing droop had a better and quicker effect on the car instead on changing shock positions or camber change. Good luck!!!

il try this and let you know . im sory i said 2.5 front and 3mm rear but i had 3mm front and 3mm rear sorry for the mistake . so should i keep 3mm in front ?

How are you measuring your droop? Is this 3mm over ride height? If so you might be able to go to 2mm in the front and have a 1mm difference from front to rear. If these measurements are using some sort of droop gauge then I'd still increase the front droop to 4mm.

As usual you're right on it leting us know what you have in stock. Thanks again for a great job.

as you said i mesure it over the ride height .
3mm droop over ride height front and 4mm ride height rear

If over ride height I would go with 2mm front and 3mm rear. I think so long as you have 1mm difference front to rear you will be fine. You can go to 4mm in the rear and still get the same results.

To be honest I used the same setup that I posted earlier. I just put hara springs on and tried a few different rates. For our track I liked the Hara "red" springs all around. I tried black all around, purple all around, red all around, red up front and purple rear, and purple front black rear. All yeilded the same general feeling.

At my local track, they just weren't the ticket. They would work good on a really nice flowing track with a good amount of grip (more like a euro style track). They smooth out the car a lot and make it feel more "stuck".

Outdrives, I've tried both the POM outdrives that come stock on the TC kit, and the optional aluminum ones. The POM outdrives work awesome. I haven't really seen a need to go away from those. They wear for a reaallllyyyy long time, and are very light. I recently put the aluminum outdrives on and saw no performance gain... other than they look pretty cool
