Default rubber tyre setup-help!!!

hey guys,

just wondering if you could help me out here;

i havent raced for about 6 or 7 months and im not a real top gun racer either, im still a student so i cant afford to race alot and i just have the time, however im thinking of entering the winternationals @ fairy meadow for a number of reasons but primarily i love the bigger events.

anyway, i was wondering if someone could help me out with setting up my car for rubber tyres???

i race an original xray T1(yes its ancient i know ) and i have a blue BMI racing chassis(3mm) on the car.

i rarely race on rubber tyres so i really have no clue of where to start at this track. not having been there before also doesnt really help. hopefully i can get some club days in before the winternats if i race but i was wondering if someone could just point me in the right direction with camber,caster,toe-in/out and anti-dive and kickup angles etc.

also, the only springs i have are the serpent ones that were out when this car was (orange,white,yellow,red) plus tamiya super hard (grey colour)

the only times ive used rubber tyres ive had problems feathering and just not handling consitently eg: oversteer one corner-understeer the next- and im not sure where to go

your help would be GREATLY appreciated...thanx

robbie
