It did not take long for us to come up with setups that worked better on our tracks, and this information was made available to all. I expect the P81 manual to do the same or similar.
Now if the reason why someone chooses to buy a certain 1/8th on road car is because the manual will give them the perfect setup for all tracks, they should stick to off road RTR monster trucks.
I totally agree with that, the instructions are very clear and the car is very easy to built.
The only thing that takes a little more time, i think, is changing the roll-centre.
But you can change that by cutting an openening in these roll-centre shims like Scotty does, and than you can change it very fast.
I will still drive the P8.0R2008 this year, unless the P81 proves to be quicker, than i change.
