Has anyone tried this stuff? I know there is a thicker version, but I wondered if this would hold up at least for indoor racing. Plus it was the only stuff I could find wide enought to do the ZX-5.

I used to use the tape but I tune the battery packs too much so I removed it in a month. My chassis does not scuff up that much. Have very minor scuffing. The only big one is on my porch where it caught the curb, the dirt on our tracks pretty fine and even and not many rocks.

Get yourself a couple wings, one cut lower, one cut in the middle, and one cut higher, and see how they work for you. The biggest change I feel, is rear traction in medium and high speed steering (think sweeper)

Depends on how much wing you want to run! I ran very little wing on my RB5... but run a bit more on my RB6. Now that I think about it, it's one piece I left off my setup sheet too. I typically cut down about 1/2 off the back facing lip. I think 1.5 lines still showing is what I run. See if you can tell in these pics..

On Tebo's set up, anyone know why type oil he uses?

I'm thinking of turning the steering rack backwards to "calm" the car (it's pretty pointy) this mod pushes the ballstuds back towards the rear of the car ... My question is, why are some guys running a 1mm spacer under the ballstuds on the steering rack? This pushes the studs even further forwards on the car, so wouldn't that make it even more darty?? or am I confused on the whole Ackerman theory

Step one is always tires though!
