I would honestly set up the car as it's recommended first with the stock settings. I found it to work just fine w/all the standard settings...but I'm sure you will want to change them from there as you would for different types of driving/tracks. Also...I'm running the RD Logics SL solid tyres. The settings for those tires is way different than say...a TakeOff CS-32/37 type of tyre. I am going to be trying all kinds of set-ups and taking good notes w/ a HUDY set-up system and then post them all and my results. Good luck. If you don't have a mm measurement device I have a .eps file that has the stock lengths in scale 1:1 for when you're building the car.
