Big Will, all of the inserts available come with the kit. If you mean what is the stock build insert, then it is the +1 which should give you 3 degrees. The "0" inserts should give your 2 degrees. I have not measured it, but this is how it appears to the eye. I use the +1 (3deg) on loose surfaces, and the 0 (2deg) on high grip tracks.

I have been using the +1s as well. That is what I wanted to know. Which insert gives what toe.....i.e. "0" gives you 2 deg, and +1 gives you 3 deg.

Is there any talk of making .5 deg and .25 deg inserts? So one could achieve 2.5 deg or 2.75 deg of rear toe.

Hello,

as some have probably noticed already, the story was finished in Durango. Man am I glad :-)

And now I will move a team C T8, the first VOREST (Ansmann X8) I had put my mark used by Siegi and everyone knows it because the Siegi gets top material.
And so it was, on Tuesday I've been to Munich to pick up the car, because he should be on Father's Day rollout in Regensburg.
So the prefabrication was not the Schlim yes it had only the engine and electronics installed.

Has built the entire setup as I left it Siegi,
Diff V-M-H 5000-7000-2000
Dämfer V H 450-400
Front springs back hard dark blue light blue soft
Tires: PRO CIRCUIT Shockwave

Flitzebogen curious how it went on the slopes! what will be different as the dingo?
First two laps and you can already see quite gemühtlich that it is the opposite of all Dingo.

Enough steering, the tail always controllability on the straight it stays clean in the lane and the acceleration is simply fun.
I was completely happy at last makes the ride really fun buggy so I'm sometimes the whole day went good 3 liters.

One thing is clear to me the car has potential and will now try it some example setups the warrior of C.

etc.
Let's see what changes so :-) Because, as in many other setups is striking that the car used front and center in the relatively thick oil and the back always extremely thin
sometimes look like the auwirkt :-)

Sun still attached some pictures of my car!
