That track don't exist anymore. It becomes a skate/rollerblade/bicycle park. Now, here in Austin, races are organize at parking lot. At times, you have real car in the middle of the track, where the owner left it. And we move from location to location after landlord chase us away.

For loose track and small here, i wouldn't recommend any lower then 42 shore rating for front and rear.

Looking for a good foam set up for a med size med traction surface with a few bumps, have to use 5mm of ride height. this is for a racer at the track that is having problems and is the only person running a yok, try my set up but did not prerform like my car...

Try
Front:
60w oil
silver springs ( these are the ones that used to come with the GT4W)
2 hole pistons
1.5 or 2 degrees of camber
1 degree of toe out
Caster: 1 big clip toward the back and the other 2 toward the front
Use the inner holes of the high shock tower(not the low profile one)
Use the outer hole on the front arms
40s tires
Run either a oneway, or a diff with yokomo hard grease on it or 50.000 oil
5mm of ride height

Rear:
40w oil
Yellow or green springs( the yellow is softer, the green is the fluorecent one)
2 hole pistons
3 degrees of camber( the yok likes a lot of camber)
2 degrees of toe in
Use the inner holes on the shock tower
37s tires, preferably 30mm
Run the diff with yokomo grease ( theres a hard one and a regular one) or 30.000 oil
5.5 or 6mm of ride height

If he pushes use the rear sway bar, I have never used the fornt one, so I cant coment on that.

Let me know what the car is doing, pushing?, is it loose?

Thanks,

I think he had a loose problem with the car, 50,000 in the front diff, 30,000 in the rear, and red yok springs up front and neo greens in the rear, what he had for toe and camber i'm not sure, but i'll give him your set up and go from there.


Thanks.

There is his problem right there. The Yokomo cars are critical to balance compared to most other cars. If the neon green is the Gt4 spring them the car wont handle because it hates having harder springs in the rear compared to the front. If this is the case I would suggest changing to silver in front and red in the rear

This will plant the car more in the rear without giving too much extra front push.

On the other hand if the neon green is the spring for the MR4-TC then it is the opposite and the rear is too soft compared to the front which also gives the feeling of the rear being loose. In this case I would suggest changing the rear springs to either dark green.

They are both mrtc springs that are on the car, the front is more orange than red, my mistake

Hi All,

I'm a newbie to nitro racing..doin some research on on-road cars and came across the gt-4 at LHS...everthing looked cool on it and much better than the HPI RTR car...

But the question I have is about the front differential? Does it not have one? and is that a good or bad thing? less traction or more?

I'm not really racing, just going to be running it at a local paved school lot...

thanks in advance

... on my setup list the most used one is the front solid rear diff combination, so good luck, the GT4-RTR its a good starting car ... and as is not much GT4-S's on the market, its very easy upgradeable to pure racing car.

hope this helps.

Guys, i need some info,

The original GT4-S Type Yokomo kit comes with 200mm dogbones or 190mm dogbones at the rear ?

thanks !!

i believe it's 200 mm. when you go to the larger diameter rear tires, you'll want to switch to the 190 mm.
