After a 15 year hiatus from 1/12th scale, I've got a couple runs under my belt now with the 12r5. Here's what I've found so far. I started out with Sean's last LiPo setup and began making changes from there. The center shock (gold spring)and the side shock I have 40wt Losi in them and the car seems much more driveable now. Gold side springs seemed too much but the blues with some tension on them are pretty solid with this combination. Anyone else running this much dampening in their cars?

I've had some trouble with the yellow rear tires as well. They have great bite but after trying a set of greys the car felt more neutral and stable. The yellows want to roll the rubber off the rims after a few runs too. Is there something that I might be doing wrong or over looking? These are JACO's tires.

Thanks,
Curtis
