I am a total noob at running indoor and honestly am a middle of the pack b-main driver.
don't care, i have fun!
My goal for when I go back here in a couple of weeks is to sort out my traction rolling issue. whether it be the car setup or my driving.
In high bite you want to lower your rear roll center on the tower by raising the camber link in the rear. I find alot of the time, traction rolling happens from the rear. 15 degree hubs up front should also help. Bump up spring rate and oil from stock or go to the outside shock hole on the arms. I reduce anti squat to zero degrees. I add a little at a time untill i have good entry steering without being violent. Anti squat can really help or hurt you. More increases steering going into the corner as it quickly unloads the rear weight to the nose off power. Then on power, resists squat. This will plant the rear on power as the shocks do not absorb the weight that transfers to the rear. The weight simply drives the tires to the ground with more force and increases traction. On high bite, i normally end up between 0-1 degree of anti sqaut.
