I put Mo's setup on the rear of the car today but left the front largely unchanged so I can see the difference the changes made out back since I've only driven the buggy once. I'll be at Revelation this weekend to test it out and hopefully all goes well. I'll have to remember to bring the laptop with me so I dont have to squint at the setup sheet on the cell LOL.

I don't recommend putting half of anyones set up on a car. You end up with front and rear end working against each other and it's worse that having the wrong one on. Just my opinion of course.

Yea I have to agree with Mo, definitely not the best way to tune, if you want to see the difference changes make then do one change at a time it's a great way to learn too but knowing Mo, I'm sure he already did every possible setup before deciding on this one so I'm betting it's pretty good if you drive on similar surface and drive like Mo ha.

The front end setup I'm currently running is quite close and his takes some things like steering throw away which I'd prefer to hang on to unless I end up with an oversteer condition. The rest of the changes are very minor (droop within 2mm and the like).

Will do :) You heading down to Heritage in the next week or two? I'd like to hit that in a couple weeks and could use some input if so.

Only thing I'd like to know about Mo's setup is ambient temps.

I'd say 75-85. We love in Ohio/Pa area. That's what it's been the past month or so

I ran Mo's setup in 95-100 degree conditions this past weekend and it was dialed! The setup allows for driving smooth as well as driving hard, I don't think I ever had a car that would allow for both.....

You didnt go up on the shock oils at all? Expecting the weather to be right around 90° this weekend where I'll be racing.

On another note, has anyone tried the Imbue pistons? I'm not understanding how they would provide an increase in performance on rougher tracks but some people are stating they do.

Excellent, thanks. On your setup sheet, high/low bite and rough/smooth arent checked, is this implying medium conditions?

That statement just doesnt compute! I've driven so many cars over the last 25 years that have never been able to do this. Cant wait to start really leaning on it to see what it can do.
