does a spool work in these cars on carpet?
I would start with the box stock setup for rubber tire and go from there, you might have to use softer springs. I have my car setup with a 4-cell 17.5 and its pretty close to weight so I dont think you would have to add much. I personally use a oneway or a diff. At my track the spools seems to reduce steering.

If you get the chance set your car up at your track and then you should be able to fine tune it when you get to the gate. Thats prettymuch what I ended up doing. I'm looking foward to running VTA (real rules) for the first time.

If your curious I"m running a Pro-2.
