I am the kind of person that likes to be different though and tries different cars. The only car I have ran at this track that is as nimble and turns as great or better than the losi is an Agama. I liked that car alot but had to get rid of it for a few reasons. The Agama kind of spoiled me when trying all the other cars because now I know how good one of these cars can turn. My current car is a teckno converted MBX6 and i have tried almost everything to get this thing to turn how I would like it to. So far from a basic setup I have changed rear toe to 2.5, tried different caster settings but settled back to stock center because I am looking for more off and on power steering. Completely removed the front sway bar, and moved rear outer hub hinge pin location to lower hole, tried various ackerman settings (returning to stock because that is just a compromise as well). Also ran SS double dees in the front and soft impacts in the rear. That made it steer well but isn't the answer. Diffs are currently 7/7/3 seems to be the best compromise. Next thing I am going to try is moving my camber link locations and rear lower roll center setings around. The car is close to where I want it now and I think moving those will make it about right.
I had the same trouble when we ran a 6R, found out that it was because I set steering EPA with car on stand and at full droop, set the EPA with car on bench at ride height and you can increase the EPA quite a bit. it made a huge difference for us. hope this helps
