Default 32mm in the rear

Asphalt -

What offset wheels/tires do you use? I'm thinking about using 32mm in the rear as well. Also, anyone know what places are carrying those new quick change hubs on the Orion page? Particularly in the Bay Area.

Thanks

it was also a hot day, the engine came off the track hot, there was hot food available, there were a couple of hot girls there too ...............................

he doesnt run a turbo, they are illegal at the club but on special challenge days you can use any body and any 12 motor.

As mentioned, I ran close to my best lap time with the Pro on the second run. My only major problem is keeping consitent. If you want to overtake some on brakes - forget it, you need to keep your line 100% of the time.

Having said that, I did run a friends Pro with the standard Pads, extremely difficult to drive as the brakes lock up too many times, you need to get the teflon pads from the word go.

I will certainly break my personal best with this car, a few little things needed to adjust, but hey it was only my first run.

Here is the setup :

Front
Tyres - Fast 45s, 24mm, trued down to 60mm
Springs - Light Blue
Oil - Mugen 50wt
Shock Position - 2nd from bottom
Caster - stock position 2mm
Camber - 2.5 degree
Toe - 1 degree out
Front ARB - Set to Medium position
Ride height - 4mm
Width - 198mm

Rear
Tyres - Fast 40s, 24mm, trued down to 60mm
Springs - Purple
Oil - Mugen 50wt
Shock Position - Lowest hole
Camber - 2 degree
Toe - 2 degree
Ride height - 4mm
Rear ARB - Set to sofest position
Width - 199mm

Engine - Novarossi RS-12
Plug - Novarossi Gold C5
Fuel - RB Concept
Pipe - Novarossi 51602
Body - Protoform Vaxhuall


Kit parts changed
Gearing - 18/22 pinions, 48T first gear spur
Teflon Pads
Serpent 1/8th Saver
Kawahara cross drilled brake disk
Rear turnbuckles.

Track


Novarossi: seen that video, have the following suggestion for your new baby.

your rear end seems wandering at corners, you might like to increase it to at least 2.5' toe in.
your front end push at mid corner, you might like to further laydown your front shocks and also soften your ARB and shock oil a bit.
