The offset used by a majority of the vehicles on the market are the same except for the Serpent, Power Racing/Edam Co/Pursuit R/C, and SMP. This is the offset best known as the Kyosho/Mugen offset. Although the original offset gave the car a smoother feel, many drivers feel that by changing the offset to the one used by the other manufacturers could be beneficial to our car.

By changing offset, you change both the suspension geometry on the car as well as the scrub radius. Thus allowing us to increase or decrease the response of the steering on the car.

In my opinion, i believe that the original offset of the car made it extremely smooth and easier to drive, but the OS2 change made it feel more reactive or sensitive to steering input. Which can be very very valuable to tracks located in the United states, since many of our tracks have technical in-fields versus the tracks located outside the US which contain more sweeping, long, wide turns.

Remember, use the offsets as a Tuning option for YOUR driving style. It may be beneficial for some, but not others.
