I ran my car on carpet for the first time, with pit 574/575. Fronts were glued on the sidewall. With no changes from the setup posted here earlier the car was really good. I wound up making a couple changes and it was really dialed.
>3mm spacer on steering rack
> 1* camber
>HPI Gold center spring #6826 (not from the pro4 set) 11.2 lb/200g
>No spacer under front ball stud on upper arm
I tried Pardus tires as well, but it's going to take more work than I had time for to get the car where it needs to be on Pardus. I have some ideas, but I need some more time at the track.

I am running at a mid traction outdoor asphalt track. I found the kit spring really good. Had try xray t3 springs 2.6 to 3.0. It fits but donot like them as the rear end is too hard and really loose during corner exit....... (with foam tires and 17.5 with turbo)

The rear of the F1 is direct axle...so not much you can do at the back.
The front....all you need is a bare rim to mount on the front and use a camber guage to check camber. Caster is preset.....the only hard to check part is the front toe. But I think eye balling it will work.
I know there were 12th scale setup station....but I have yet to see a F1 specific one.
