This is the setup we most recently ran on a high speed tight track at the Hudy Race in St. Louis. If your track is on the new CRC Black Carpet and you are looking for something that reacts quickly, especially through the tighter sections of the track I would strongly recommend trying this.

Front:
.45 front springs
.25-.5mm front droop
5degree castor blocks
2 shims back
.25deg camber
2.5mm roll center shim
Losi Smart Diff Grease on the kingpins
Brass pivot balls
Ballstuds on steering knuckles shimmed up 2.5mm
(Make sure that the turnbuckles are level and that they are parallel to the front of the chassis or have a slight forward sweep)
166mm front width
CRC Purple Stripe - 39.5-40mm

Rear:
35wt shock oil
AE blue or NEW crc purple center spring
.50mm of spacing under the front side link
.50 CRC side springs - outboard position
2mm pod up-travel
15,000wt diff fluid in the tubes (can use 1 tube of 10k and 1 tube of 20k as an option)
172mm rear width
CRC Purple Stripe - 40-40.5mm

CRC Audi R8 Body in 17.5
CRC Lola Body in 13.5

Option Parts:
New CRC LCG Rear Pod
New CRC Double Clamping Hub
New CRC Dampener Tube Ballstuds

If anyone has any questions about this setup I would be more then willing to answer, just let me know either on here or on Facebook.

Are they for the inner or outer ball studs?

Hey guys, I've added some adapters to my Shapeways shop that will allow you to measure the caster angle on the CRC front end with most setup systems on the market. The adapters sit on top of the steering blocks and hold a short piece of 1/16" music wire. The wire will point to the markings located on most setup systems such as Hudy, Trackstar, etc.. No more eyeballing the caster angle. There are two holes for mounting the wire, so these work with both inline and trailing axles, and fit both the original pro-strut steering blocks, as well as the newer blocks for the 1/18" axles.
