that's because most folks haven't seen it... don't think that because a majority hasn't noticed something, that it doesn't happen... remember the xb4 rear arm mount issue ;)

But, yes, same on mine. Doubtful whether 0.2deg is noticeable in action though.

Team drivers pay for a lot more than you think :)

I'd say pretty much everyone at my track driving an xray (for sure) and most other cars use the hudy setup station and use it at least once per race day. Probably more. So I'm pretty sure they would have noticed.

I can't remember the last time I checked my rear toe with a toe plate. Maybe I'm just too lazy.

no you aren't. most people don't. modern cars have inserts/parts that make this easy.... the older ones will remember schumacher sst-based cars with adjustable rear toe links... this is when I bought my first (hudy) setup bench... but not as needed anymore :)

I'm not getting the ride height I wanted at the front, I set the droop at 5 front, I push the shock collar all the way down and I'm getting around 4.6 - 4.7mm height, help?

Did Bruno use the T4'2016 for the ETS season opener?

His words as per redrc interview:
the Portuguese ace said, ‘we were super prepared for this weekend as we did a lot of testing at the Hudy Arena and this stood to us. We did not use the new car here so it is very encouraging for us that the new car is coming’.

That is not what he said

From RedRC;


A race where he just made it into the A-Main on his first attempt and then finished on the podium last year, Coelho said on taking what is only his second ETS win on carpet, ‘I don’t have so much to say, the car was great again and I made no mistakes’. He continued, ‘For this is a super important beginning to the season as carpet is not my favourite, I am much happier racing on asphalt, but coming from 3rd last year to TQ & win is really good. It’s a long season but this has been a good way to start it’. In terms of his Hobbywing powered T4 2017, which was clearly a step ahead of his rivals in terms of its performance in what most drivers described as ‘strange’ track conditions, the Portuguese ace said, ‘we were super prepared for this weekend as we did a lot of testing at the Hudy Arena and this stood to us. We also tested some new parts there which we did not use here so it is very encouraging for us for the future that we already have this pace’.

RedRC corrected it, thanks to all for clarifying it for me.
