I've not really had any true racing experience on high-grip carpet. So I've come here to ask those who have and or frequently race on high-grip carpet for setup advice.

My current setup as it stand is... This was my go to setup for low-medium traction, however, it started to develop some rear tire lift because it started rain which increased the humidity. Also the amount of 1/12th running on the track started to increase the grip as well.

I did switch out to CRC 0.425 springs which helped the car. But, I think I need to switch out the center spring to one slightly softer. Maybe Morotech Medium Hard.
I would soften the tube lube to 10k-15k, if you have Yokomo purple or green side springs try those and change the reactive caster setting to 5 degrees.
