Before, if I hit the break in the straightaway going into the turn, the car would get a little loose on the rear end. I can also now throttle much sooner coming out of turns (of course, I increased the rear toe). Definitely like this mtc 3.5 toe block setting better! I do still have a slight on-power push in turns. Might be a function of my driving though. I can't wait to run this truck on an indoor, loose 1/8 size track. I would only expect it to be better there.

This was on a small, tight, medium bite track at a club race.

I will say that one of my fellow club races runs kinwald's setup with the 8mm mod and he's still about 0.5 second per lap faster even with my changes with the rear toe. So, I guess it depends on your driving style and skill level.

Thanks for testing out that mtc toe block a ways back.
Glad to hear how it went, good or bad, its good for everyone to get info on how the changes affect things.

What is your full setup now?
