Between the 6.2 and the 7 there is a minor difference. I think it was about 3 or 4 mm. I just slotted the holes a little. Now with the 7.1 the 6.2 bodies fit on again.

Randy Caster ran this too. Hebert and I ran something different looking for even more speed. But I think Juho's setup was probably the best.

Image attached if the other pic is not clear enough. Two simple straight cuts.

I'm still running the TC7 base version and was very happy with the car on asphalt.
As the indoor carpet season is starting, I was wondering which setup to start with (running 17.5T GT with the PF GT body).
As I don't want to spend money on an alu chassis, I have some questions concerning the setup:
1. Can I refere to the team setups (in which allmost everybody is using alu chassis) also for the carbon chassis or do have to go from a differnt starting point?
2. which might be the main differences to a carpet setup using carbon instead of alu chassis?
3. will the latest TC7.1 carpet setups be a good hint also for my TC7 or should I better stick to the older TC7 carpet setups (both posted with alu chassis)?

Would be happy for any helping answers!
