Hello all,
I ran my F201 on Ozite again last night. Got a few tuning questions.
As you all know theres a lot of body roll in these cars. On mine-I have more front than rear i think. I have two o-rings in the shocks leading to about 3mm up-travel in front. I will add one more shim reducing uptravel to almost none in front. Is this the right thing to do or is the car faster letting roll? I have the olive springs on the front. I tried stiffer-but car pushed out the door. Just fyi-I have black springs in back and about 1.5mm of droop. Ride height is about 3mm in front and 4mm in back.
Next thing-car takes many laps for the Tamiya type A tires to come in. I used Jack the gripper -let it soak for 30 minutes then wiped off and ran. Is there a way to make car come in the first lap?
Thanks,
Ray
The only way to ge tthe rubber tires to grip is to use a tire warmer on them....
