Thanks for the tips, Jilles.

What do you mean by 'kick up rear'?

- more toe-in
- 30W shock oil, with soft springs

For tyres I recommend soft type such as Sorex 24R, Pit Shimizu wet tyres.
From Tamiya you even can try the rally tyres from the DB03R.
Also use soft sponge inserts instead of molded inserts.
