The body shown in Garen's car picture is made by Xceed. It's called the Zytec. It's pricey but from what I have seen handles quite good.

Wish I could have helped, but my missing parts have not arrived yet. I missed the Tornado Fuel challenge at 301 Raceway.

Standard setup is a very good baseline start, the only things that I changed were, I took the spacers out from the bottom of the front upper arm mounts, instead of 254 track width in the front I had 252 and for the rear I moved the swaybar to the inner holes on the lower arms, and the car felt awsome. So my setup was.....
FRONT
Track width---- (252)
Ride height----- (6.5)
Downstop------ (2)
Camber --------(-1.5)
Toe----------- (+1.5)
Tire----------- (37 Shore 68mm)
REAR
Track width-----(262)
Ride Height------(7.5)
Downstop------- (8)
Camber----------(-3)
Toe-------------(-2.5)
Tire-------------(37 Shore 75mm)
Standard Wheelbase

SETUP
Track was high bite, track info here: www.4acesrcracing.net
My setup is same as the manual except:
rear axle in center position
rear shock in 2nd hole from bottom
rear bar mounted in inner position on arm and ball studs moved in about 4mm on the bar
rear body mount tabs are in the opposite direction as that shown on the setup sheet and are angled so the body rests on them
rear upper arm is in the middle position on the tower (use the pin bushing that has only one hole, centered)
rear lower arm in the middle outer position
servo saver position in middle
short wheelbase in the front
front axles in center position
no spacers under front upper arm mounts
caster in middle
front camber -2 each side
rear camber -3 each side
front toe +0.5 out each side
rear toe -3 each side
front width 252mm
Body- Zytec (I'll post later how far in front of the bumper), with gurney flap about 5mm behind body
X-Tyres, 37 shore, 75mm/68mm for the A main, 8mm rear ride height, 7.5mm front ride height, smaller tires for qualifying
500 cps Motonica oil in the shocks
49/44 spur gears
Graphite battery tray and graphite rear chassis insert
Rear body mount centering pin in middle position
Gio Racing clutch with Novarossi Flash motor, non conical med header, 2052 pipe, Byron Pro Driver 2500
I built the car with the optional ti layshafts and dogbones and ergal mid layshaft mount and VTX ti screws throughout. The car was about 80 grams under so all the ti screws came off and some lead weights got added on on various parts of the car. This was my first race with the car, I am sure the setup will change as time goes on and of course will change with different tracks and layouts. The wheelbase was the last thing I changed and it made the car much better. I did not qualify all that well as I stripped a spur gear in the warm up of the last round, but I placed 2nd in the main, my fastest lap 16.3; fastest lap in the main (as far as I know) was a 16.2
