I will run on carpet, but I haven't tried it yet and have to do quite a bit to set it up. The person who I got it from had about -3* camber on one side and 0* on the other.
What shout I set the ride-height at?

LouisB,

I am not sure what ride height would work best for asphalt because I am new to 1/12th scale and only have experience on a very smooth ozite circuit. Was the car set up for oval? I set my camber so that the front tires wear evenly across their contact patch regardless of the measurement. I run road circuits though and not oval so I guess it all depends on what your application is. The reason I asked if you were running on asphalt was because the ride height looked very high for a carpet setup. When I am running at my local track I run 3mm all the way around (mainly because thats what they tech for as a minimum ride height) otherwise I would go a little bit lower.
