Took my new rubber car out for it's first evening of practice tonight.

Car is one of the IIC 2007 cars so full alloy plus I threw an alloy diff into the car too.

I've been running a borrowed Yokomo BD in stock rubber lately as my Scythe is set up for 19 turn foam.

Basic kit set-up apart from camber links in middle length, trinity 30 weight oil in the shocks, 270gf/mm rear springs and 392gf/mm front springs, 2 degree negative camber all around, 1 degree of inboard front toe out.

Knocked 1/2 a second off my best lap from Wednesday night with the Yokomo and was consistently quicker than my best lap with the Yokomo.

I think I can go a bit softer spring in the front plus I'll swap to the carbon graphite arms all around. Still, I'm very happy with the car after only a couple of packs and I know it has more in it.
