While running the tc4, the only change I've ever made was to bring the rear shocks in one on the tower.VFW has less grip, especially comparing it to rr, where there was foam cars pelting the track with compound. One thing too, the turns are not as flowing as rr so you need to let off and find the fastest line. Setting the car up to turn is the key without giving up rear traction. You may want to remove a rear sway bar if you are using one. Hope that helps, I know it's hard to do when you get only 20 minutes to practice.

I have been looking for a low bite setup but with now luck, what is the best tire to run there? I've been using the cs-27s.

With the recent popularity of the 18th scale class, we will be adding this to the lineup for the Cheeseland race. It will consist of the truck/buggy style vehicles. [Losi mini-T, Assoc.18T, 18B , Vendetta, MiniQuake. etc.] It will be run as an 'open ' class, minimal rules. Just have some fun. See you there, & stay fast.
