I've done that and have been through my share of the CRC kit oil. I'm curious so I can make adjustments in oil as I didn't think there were any other oils offered by CRC. Not knowing the brand or CsT makes it a little harder to go up or down a known amount. But you're right, calling CRC is a great idea to get help. John always answers my questions.

The kit shock oil in the Xti kits is Losi 30wt. That should take away any unknowns so you can test using the same brand oil.

Hey Guys,

I just got back from the US Indoor Champs and thought I'd share my set up info with you.

I ran 1/12 17.5 Masters, TQ'ed and won the main with the following set up:

.50 front springs (.01" gap between stearing block and lower pivot)
10* blocks
1* camber
black fronts at 1.62"
3.5mm clearance

stock shock oil
red spring
1.5mm droop
outside of tubes raised with 20k
orange side springs
3.5mm clearance on back of chassis
3.5mm clearance on front and back of lower pod plate
magenta rears at 1.66"

Here's a pic

does anybody know if the #1762 extended upper pod plates (the ones that have the longer tab where the top end of the shock attaches) will fit on the new XTI slider pod?

They do not fit.

Try my set up a few posts above.

The first race day the car was too aggressive, with the set up on there now it's smooth and easy to drive.

Do you have the roll center spacers? That will calm the car down. It should decrease your front camber gain.

i have mine pretty much setup the same way i didn't raise damper tubes

If you are running the same tires I listed, try chrome fronts.
Those had a slight push to them when I tried them.

One other thing I forgot to list, I used orange side springs.
Those are 2 steps softer then the kit white.

Are the orange side springs mudslide springs?

To be honest I'm not sure who made them.
I borrowed them from a friend who has had them in their oval box for years..lol..

I originally tried Assoc. springs, but they were too soft.
