Title: General setup and why? Post by: theotherandy on November 05, 2010, 10:53:09 PM I am sorry if this has been covered but I couldn't find it on my searches. I would like to know what all of you guys are running for setups, and what you are getting out of it. I have read what most people are doing for tires but what about toe in/out, chassis mm length, what springs and the little things that the springs seat over, motor pods, any body modifications or anything else in general that effects you mini-z. I realize that a perfect setup for one person can be horrible for another driver. Do mini-z's follow the rules of a larger scale rc on road car or are they in a world of their own when it comes to setting them up? This is a subject that has really started to fascinate me in my Inferno GT, and since I have a modest RCP track in the basement I can mess with my mini-z and see the real world results from it. Something I can't do with my IGT. So please share those theory's with a noob.
The only thing I have done to mine besides tires is change the front springs to a stiffer spring (yellow kyosho spring) and a shorter spacer that the spring goes over to give me a little more travel on the front suspension. I feel that that lets me carry a little more speed going into a turn. Title: Re: General setup and why?
