Stiffer springs and heavier oils all around? Less camber and gluing the outside edges of the tires? Stiffer center shock to handle the increased weight?
Actually we set the cars up softer. Soft front springs with 1-2 mm of droop, Soft side springs on the rear. The center spring is usually a medium rate with some rear droop. Oil in the center is similar to a foam setup. Front caster and camber aren't much different. Sidewall glue as track dictates.
