Anybody have/know of a good parking lot track setup? The track surface is fairly smooth and sprayed with sugar water. I've never raced on anything else so I don't know how it compares in traction to others. Its of decent size with the fast guys doing 20 second laps.
thanks in advance.... |
if you look up espos setup at the mentor race his car was really good

Hey, good on you man !!! :nod:
I'm using basic kit setup except : 1. longer screws ...... I use 2mm longer screws everywhere that's fit. 2. shock absorbers + springs ...... I use Mugen MTX4 shock absorbers ( 2 holes front, 1 hole rear ) + mugen's light blue springs ( 1.7 ) 3. alluminium wheel hex + 0.75 all around 4. mugen super hard spring (silver) for centax clutch, set to 0.8mm tightness ( you don't have to copy mine, especially #1 .... it makes my car stiff and heavy ). BTW, xray spare parts are really expensive compare to mugen :flaming: ..... I have calculate the cost of accumulating spare parts all together exceed the price of new car, so I bought 2 kits, 1 for car, 1 for spare parts. The car itself is very nice to drive : the drive train is super smooth, braking is awesome ( no kidding ), 2 speed engangement is like real sport cars, and NT1 is totally a handsome car. I'm glad to own it. This week I have big race, I'm going to test NT1 for that. c u der..:nod: |

Thanks. Looks good to me. I'm learning setup, but it can be a bit complicated sometimes. I need more track time to sort all this stuff out.:nod:

Hey guys. Went for some Testing on the weekend, i found something very interesting!! I was on a fairly frippy technical track, running 40 Rears ad 38 Fronts. I had Light Purple rear springs (35 Pound), Purple Front springs (30 Pound) I had heaps of off-power steering, heaps of rear end grip but was just lacking some on power steering (like a lot of us). At that stage i was running a 26 tooth side pulley. Went to a 26 tooth, went back out and the car totally transformed itself! Kept its awesome steering off power and just added heaps of steering on-power. In the end i actually ended up adding some front droop to give it a bit more rear-end grip on-power, after that the car was a weapon. Hope this helps ;)

I had the same experience when switching from a 26t as well. :nod: |

I´m driving the Kopropo 2413 on throttle and steering. Works great! And you also loose about 20g compared to standard servos.

Do you have the spring set? You might want to start with the Violet and Light Purple spring sets and play around with those. The Multi-diff is killer too.

Yeh sorry guys, i actually switched from a 25 tooth to a 26 tooth. I figured this allowed the front wheels to turn faster giving them more grip, This is the first time i havn't ran overdrive, on my Touring Cars i have always ran overdrive.....well the cars awesome now so mabye some try it someday, hey it worked for me!
Regards, Ryan |

Regards, Ryan If I remember correctly the 25t gives a 1.04:1 front overdrive and the 26t is 1:1. I'm trying to figure this all out though. |
