I am not a pro, but I have used 7-5-2 everywhere. It worked really well. Giving traction and stability everywhere.

Experiment for yourself!!! My ride height may work for me and not you! Set the car up per the instructions and change things from there. There is no magic set up for everyone, you need to spend the time with your buggy and figure out what fits you, your track and driving style. Also read through the thread there are lots of set ups posted that you can try on your buggy.

there is a pic itīs better for you to see and I use the kyosho wing holder.

I think for some type of track the stock wing have to much downforce, not a flowing wing.
Why do you think that sometimes they do this??
