Hi Darren, car was excellent With them. I ran in our competitive 17.5T blinky class, qualifying and finishing 3rd in the A Final. Was really easy to push with the car against some much more expensive competition, beating current XRays and a BD12 all driven by competitive drivers. I Upped shock fluid to 55wt front, 50wt rear and dropped the rear diff fluid to 2k (all associated oils) I placed a 1mm shim under the outer rear top link as well. The car ended up really forgiving in the end, and capable of properly impressive Pace.
@@Gingapaint sounds like you have it somewhat figured out. I have 4 of these cars and am racing a very amateur indoor series with 2 VTA versions and 2 touring versions. The cars do ok but on our very small courses they do tend to roll. I'm ordering these parts up and hopefully will have it figured out by Tuesday!
@@supermotobeard check droop as well, kit standard is probably too much for carpet racing. I ended up with 3mm rear and 2mm front. That should help prevent too much body roll hopefully! I'll work out a proper set up sheet at some point!
@@supermotobeard wheels off, pop the car on droop blocks and measure the bottom of the hub. From the surface. Basically how much the arm drops from level.

Any feedback on how they worked?

@@Gingapaint where are you measuring droop?
