Default Set up suggestions

Anyone willing to share a setup for a TC4 tub w/ a 17.5 racing VTA on high traction carpet? I've just got back into R/C and started racing for the first time. Last week a couple guys at the track helped set up my car and WOW what a difference. I'm looking into getting setup tools and would like any of your suggestions for setup values that I can try as a jump start.

Right now I'm at 5 mm ride height, blue springs frt and rear, 1 deg toe frt and rear, and droop set even frt and rear. I just got the XXX Main setup book and I'm getting thru that. As for how it handles now, I don't know what can make it better (lack of experience) but my buddy thinks it pushes a bit. He suggested to try softer springs in the rear, which I'm gonna chance to try out but haven't done yet.

Any pointers or suggestions to a new racer would be welcome. Thank you.
