Will teach you everything you need to know. except experience. You should be running a soft tire, traction compound wears away fast on asphalt, and how long at you letting the tires soak? You also really need softer springs it the car is drifting softer springs and tires are a most. Atleast in the rear. Is the car just loose or oversteering? If your over steering softer up front. If its just loose soft all around. Kill the sway bars to. They make it really hard to tune suspension. When I raced onroad I never ran swaybars, and nor did half the track. Still would like to race on-road, tracks to far away. Tires and springs homie, that is the key here. I know the guys your talking about also. Read this book and things will make alot more sense to you. My setup table is to small for your car also, and there is no such thing as eyeballing a setup. invest in an 1/8 scale buggy setup station and custom make a perfectly flat board. I talk to you more about it on friday, but I Garuntee that I can help you get that car to hook up with that motor.
sounds like a plan....
the sway bars on this thing are funky. i dont know how to explain, but they are 2-piece sway bars..if that makes sense. some1 told me to try running os 5 plugs in it to drop the temp but then chip told me that would not help. so i dont know.
on the tires, it was like 60 degrees out and i was only letting it sit for like ten mins....soon as i take off the car spins cuz tires are still wet....compound wouldnt get tacky.
