In my history. I have yet to see a site that keeps up with those. Normally,they just post setups from their top team drivers and even then,they are slow to update new ones. So I normally dont visit the main site for setup's.

Now it might be different for others so I dont know. I'm not saying Tekno would be slow either for the record.

You can change front Kick-up with the 10 and 15 blocks, gives a similar
feel to the caster blocks you want.

I think petit rc is the most stable of any of the aftermarket sites. There are
already several SCT410 setups posted.

I agree, but changing the kick affects more than just caster. I am going to try 10* with full front kicked and see how that works.

(Can somehow such temp affect this very front bearing?)
Anyone?

there a cheap insurance to replace at the start of each day

if your getting over 2L on the bearing then your doing well i would think

its nitro there are items that need upkeep and replacement daily like filters etc

Thanks. I use Avid bearing oil, maybe thats why they last so long.
Does ceramic bearings (i.e. Protek) last ever longer?

Also i would like to ask everyone submitting their setup sheets provide Fr and Rr camber link lenghts (from ball to ball, or exposed metal part as per manual) to make setup changes even more easier for rest of us. Ideally it gonna be very useful to create table of camber link lenght according to tower/hub position and desired camber angle.

I buy sleaves of Boca Bearings and replace the bearings either before, during, or after a race depending on the size of the race. I've never run them until they failed. I wouldn't want to damage the bell, spur, or even the tank possibly.

I run all my quals on a new set of bearings, then get a new set for mains. Ill use the set from mains for practice as well. Then new ones for quals.... You see the pattern.
