Yokomo chassis
Blazer2
You are mistaken. Ians car has the standard BD chassis that comes in the Grainger kit.
The springs were the new(ish) Yokomo progressive - he used YS1460 Black.
Shocks have RS14 pistons and 450(f) and 400(r) oils.
There will be a setup sheet on the CML website very soon.

Their focus seems to be towards offroad with the worlds on this year, but that does'nt help us TC drivers.

R u looking differences on BD-002 and BD-002G ??
BD002G is same thickness as BD002 but made from differend compound of carbon so is harded to flex!!
You can see the difference both at your hands and at the track!!

I was using hard chassis at weekend on new track with low grip - had lots of push and then sliding on power. was forced to change to std after big crash 
and put mod bulkhead on - car much better, more predictable and better turn in. I always use hard on carpet, stops it flopping about from corner to corner.
