RC10B4.1 FT/WC
Be careful about mounting the c hub on the back. For me anyway, it seemed like it really loosened up the rear a lot. Since you are on carpet, you might actually like that. But for me it was very hard to drive. I think Losi , kysho and a few others have vertical studs on the hubs and some of the settings change the front to back angle of the camber link. Because this is a tuning option they use, I would imagine that it does make a change. Plus I can greatly feel it. I plan to move the rear shock tower forward. The only side effect I can see it that it will move some weight forward. Will that be good or bad? I will find out :-)
There was not enough difference for me to notice. I consider myself a decent driver. I usually podium in sportsman or sometimes even win. When I run with sponsored guys I'm usually toward the middle/back, but a lot of good guys go to WC. So I figure some top guys would notice a difference but I don't. Then again, I run on high traction
[QUOTE=B.A. Racer;11646024]Exactly. If people on here would just stop arguing about it, and just test it themselves. If they would test them back to back, they will notice a difference for sure.[

Thanks for the suggestions guys. In our buggy class, we have a mix of new drivers and more experienced drivers. So, it can be a cluster at times... Last night we were short on entries, so they put the stadium trucks in with the buggies and just called it "2WD class" so it was worse.

For the tracks I run on and on my car, A hub tower gave more consistent bite through the turn but not the drive off the corner. C tower had the car rotate through the turn in more of a controlled slide but really square up and go when you grabbed the throttle.
Personally I like the C better but some guys like A. I am pretty sure Hartson has quite a few setups listed where he is on A and we have a few local guys here in PA/NJ/MD area that are faster with A too.
One thing I haven't tried was running the C with 2 washers (std Ubrace) just to see how it felt. All last winter I did 0 washers. This year I have been running 1. I'll probably try 2 soon just to see how the car feels different.
And for gods sakes, don't start throwing roll centers at me. I know what it does, but I don't care LOL. I just care about how the car feels after the change
Well, since i need more traction exiting corners, should I add more or less washers on the u brace?
Also, this white plastic piece cracked, the motor still operates fine, but should I replace it?

Second, grasp the concept of what I just said.... Try both with the washers. Unless you are qualifying for Ifmar worlds, you have races that you can use to try things. You can ask us and we can all give you an answer and honestly, they can all be both right and wrong.
Do yourself a favor and get a note pad and just jot down this kind of stuff so you know. We can't all be named Ryan or Jarred
First, if it's broke, fix it.

Plus I am a much better mechanic than I have ever been driver...... I can set them up and get you right but I can't get clean runs to save my life LOL Need more practice!
