wstuart, personally I like Max Machler Asphalt setups, they always work well. Here's his latest setup for his 13.5 car. https://site.petitrc.com/reglages/aw...orn2021091719/

Allright experts I could use some help. I just bought a box stock a800mmx carbon chassis.
I will be running it in 17.5 TC on this smooth parking lot track. I would describe the grip as extra medium:
https://youtu.be/_BwsyxA7D30
Parts questions:
From the track video, are there any parts you think I should get?
Soft springs?
One-piece top deck? Soft top deck?
Long arms? Carbon? Aluminum?
any others?
what battery - LCG? Shorty? What mah?
Could you all point me to a setup you would reccomend for 17.5 on this track?
I used to race the shaft driven awesomatix like 7 or 8 years ago. I have some experience with the suspension but it's been a long time and I'm just getting back in. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I'm running sanwa esc and pgs servo (so I can control things from my radio). I've already raced on this track once - I'm actually the orange and white car in the video - thats my TC7.1

on the bdl -- you just have to experiment. or you can copy what others have done/posted. it is very body + mounting specific. if the top of the bdl screw gets 'polished' from touching on the body you know you're doing the correct thing. ultimately the body need to be suspended by the bdl most of the time when the car is in motion --- just not when it is unloaded (such as full speed down the straight).

Hi all,
can anyone offer some advice for running in hot conditions?
My car was great during the morning both days of last event, but once the track temp increased to 50-55 deg C the car was near impossible to drive.
bulk oversteer on corner entry, managed to keep it off the grass but my pace dropped off too much,
thicker diff perhaps? or maybe thicker shock oils?
I can link my set up below

Ok wasn't sure but thinking with those temperatures tires may be overheating

We have run a lot in very hot conditions (outside asphalt) here in Arizona. We run the Rush 36X in the winter time, but always go to the 40X in the summer. If I started getting really loose, I'd always soften my rear springs. I would run a front wheel rate of around 70 and the rear wheel rate around 95. Good luck.

400 cst oil looks too soft for such high temperature.
F51%/R49% weight distribution on asphalt is unusual refering to the team's experience.
Usually we use such weight distribution on CRC black carpet at very high grip conditions.
