Here is the setup many of us run at our club racing against one of best 1/12 racers out there.
Front Spring = .018" springs (.020" will take steering away with 1s LiPo)
Camber = 1.5-deg (adjust according to tire wear)
Caster = 5 to 8 deg (higher if more corner speed is needed)
Side Spring = Blue or White depending on grip (blue for higher grip carpet)
Middle Spring = Blue (12lb) or Gold (14lb). Most of us run Blue, Copper (16lb) is way too stiff.
Side Damper Tubes (not shocks) = 5000wt buggy oil (very thick stuff)
Yellow Rear Tires
Double Pink Front Tires (purple just won't provide enough side bite, especially when using Yellow Rears)
Ride Height = 3.0mm to 3.5mm front, middle equal or .5mm less than front, 3.5mm to 4.0mm Rear.
Pod Droop = 1.0mm to 2.0mm
