-.45 front and side springs.
- red center spring
-front end built stock
-7k in the tubes
-190mm in the rear (94mm and change on each side when checked from the center line hole on the bottom plate)
-1 degree negative camber
- at the snowbirds, I ran battery inline, up front and 1/2 glue on the tires (glue high enough to help if I rub the track barriers, but not high enough to effect handling). I have also played around with full glue, battery transverse.
-right now, I am running the Fenix gear diff with 1 million in it.
- Very little rear droop. Just enough to say that there is some.
-4.25mm front ride height, 4.5mm rear ride height.
-Tamiya F60 front wing (now available through CRC!)
-JR 3650 (12th scale sized servo) mounted the same way it is in the manual.
If anyone has any specific questions, feel free to ask. Like I said, my car has already been shipped to the next race so I will answer the best I can until I have my car actually in front of me.

You have to lift the front of the chassis, the rear wont tell you anything. Lift from center of front and see what tire comes off the ground first (some people place coins on top of tire and watch which one drops first ) then adjust opposite corner tweak spring down 1/8 of a turn and other up 1/8 turn. Repeat untill both front tires lift at same time . If your chassis is balanced left to right tweak will usually be very close and not need much adjustment. You can do a YouTube search for setting pan car tweak coin method and watch some videos to make sure your dling it right.

At a UF1 race weekend at the Gate a couple of years ago, you and I were both there. A race Saturday and a race Sunday. You were running a Tamiya car. On Saturday, you didn't run very well. On Sunday you ran great. I asked you what you changed, and you said you went to a full size 2s pack. You thought the weight helped. I kept that in the memory bank....
I started messing around with our saddle pack. I have not settled on whether it is truly better or not. It does make the car heavier by quite a bit. Frank went that way after I went to Vegas. Andrew borrowed his car for the Snowbirds and basically ran it the way Frank had it set up.
I have been fast with the saddle pack setup, and I have been slow with it. So it is not a must have just yet.....

LOLz on the UF1 race...I do remember that exchange. Saddle packs FTW!
