The setup I used was very similar to this other than I ran 6 front droop and 5 rear.

Fresh set of sorex 28 blacks.
13.5 boosted, fairly technical track with some fast sections.
Any tips on what to change for next time? I was thinking of changing to yokomo blue all round rather than pink front and blue rear but I'm open to suggestions!
I wouldn't run so little droop in the front, at 7 or 6 mm droop you're not getting enough weight transfer to the rear tires when you are on power. 4.5-5mm sounds more like it, especially when running 13.5 boosted, it's spinning out on power, so the more weight going to the back tires with more droop, ( more droop is smaller number) when you hit the throttle the more traction you'll have going to the back tires!
Just my 2$
