The first thing that jumps out at me is the ride height, it's quite a bit lower than most all people run. Usually you see people run 24mm front and rear. You also have LRC and HRC selected, which one are you running?

More Agressive:

-27.5 or even 25 wt front oil
-2 (shorter) front camber link)
-0mm bump steer washers
-3* or even 5* front caster blocks
-20/10 or 20/5 front kick/caster
-Stock Hex Width
-25wt rear oil
-White rear spring
-1-A rear camber link
-Regular Chassis
-Non-Closed cell front foam. CC front foam will greatly reduce front steering and grip

Another thing I didn't kno and I just learned CC foams up front will reduce steering. I'm glad I didnt order any inserts yet. Racing my 22 is goin to take some learning compared to sc.

Your probably going to hate me for this but I need some tire suggestions for my 22.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bi9Ju...eature=g-all-u

That's a video of "2WD Stock SCT" at my local track Muddpumpers Mountain Raceway. I'm the blue/green XXX-SCT with the pot leaf on the roof lol.

The track is very hard packed with a lot of dust on top. Track is never watered due to the owner having well water at his house.

I know how to install/do the mod, just wanted to see what the RCRD shims looked like. If they are just washers, then I'll just keep it like I have it. I just wanted something that provided a little more surface area for the tranny fit against.

Going now to race on new track, Chambers setup at Vaasa Worlds as base. Any suggestions? http://www.petitrc.com/setup/losi/se...714/index.html Should I raise the tranny? Or modify the setup somehow? In Finland, it's estimated to be something like +15C warm, should I go wit 54 piston?


Think I will be running shorty lipo with LRP x20 9,5. And low profile servo, alu camber blocks, alu front pivot.

Track, sorry for the SC running there
