Yep

I've talked to Thijs yesterday (the guy who's driving the Arrow).
He found the car great to drive and very stable

(that's the
most important thing for me, a well balanced car, great!).
I had given him the tips&tricks all of you PM'd me as starting point,
'cause I was a bit surprised to hear the rear would be tricky to get
it right.
After a few (very first) runs; this is what he came up with:
Body = Protoform Speed 12 GTP (.030)
Tires F/R = Black / Yellow
Tire additive = CorallyTC2 / F : 50% R : 100%
Springs F/R = 0.020 / CRC White
Center shock = CRC Copper / 20Wt
Front suspension = Old Skool (no xtra shims)
Rear suspension = CRC Tubes (crc red lube)
Motor = 19T
Gearing = 37 mm
Total Weight = 825 gr (without PT)
Remarks =
car handles good, very stable,
not as direct as it should be when entering corners:
maybe switch from Black to Purple ? (no Purple at
hand) / change front spring;rear traction OK - stick with Yellow.
I guess purple would do the trick in front?
I'll keep you informed about car handling on some other set-ups !
Benedict.
