Default Re: 415 on carpet / foam

I ran the 415 on carpet foam last winter at a number of events with high grip. When I first got the car I ran it with the one-way on foams -- fast but not easy to drive and be consistent. So I made a front diff and like the car much more.

Comparing the evo 3 vs. the 415 on carpet, i much preferred the 415. The evo 3 had too much steering...I thinnk due to a more flexible chassis. I glued two upper decks together on the evo 3, which helped it a lot, but the 415 being stiffer just seemed more stable and much easier to drive hard and fast.
Martin,
What car did you use at the TCS Nats? Can you pls. post your setup? Thanks.
