Going by the pics of the front steering hub I see I5 T2, so it should be 5* of inclination and 2mm trail like the mbx7r and the front axle is angled like the mp9 and the mbx series, not saying it's a copy of one or another because geometry is tire dependent I just want to know the whys.
I don't see any reason to run so much scrub nor SAI (our cars haven't any space constraints like 1:1 cars) so I am asking here in hopes of someone in the know to school me.

About SAI and the outboard tire I would say in low speed yes it does make a difference but when I mean low speed it's really low speed like around 10mph, more caster is actually worse.

The tuning kit chassis pretty much starts life as a std 4.0 chassis but is mostly milled down to 3mm and then has way more pocket milling, a few extra holes for diff location,etc...compared to the 4.0 and the new X..... its like comparing apples with oranges.... two completely different animals and layouts. The new X is incomparible to the older Losi's and can probably no longer be called an evolution of the ol 2.0 as it is so far removed from the old designs that not too much has been re-used(design wise) and that we are pretty much talking about a brand new buggy on the market

What for motor mount you using? I use the quick change mount...gives a little extra support. Use to have a king headz extended mount, but sold it long ago...wish I had it for the tuning chassis. Have the front alum. brace in and thinking about putting my alum. back brace in. I noticed the bell rubbing the tank in last weeks race but had a couple of crazy crashes "more then normal" " token" ..lol. But need to say...them K-cars were hooking up...not sure why.

Also new on the car are extended body mounts. Less chance of body ripping apart.
