A/A blocks

2MM droop

Rear
Tamiya blue
50W oil / 3 hole piston

The car is stable with the Stratus 2.0, and more agressive with the Alpha.
This is a good setup. The bite comes up fairly quickly as the day progresses so make sure you make appropriate changes if needed. By the way this setup was from E.j Evans/Paul Paras so the setup is money.
