depends on the tyres im using. my full set up is already posted but im running 40 in the front and 30 in the rear as a base setup at nigh on every track ive been to so far since i drilled my pistons out to 2 x 1.5mm front and back, having said that when we run minipins on astro we tend to go up 5 wt all round and poss stiffer springs and 1.4 mm roll bar on the back to stop it from collapsing mid corner

Nice car to assemble tho.

i didnt runn any grub screws to start with in mine but am now starting to get a little play back n forth on the front c hub so have now shimed it and added the grubscrew to remove all play and make mi car feel like new again, and even with it locked it doesnt interfere with the suspension at all, although my car has raced every weekend from october up untill xmas and 2 times through the week as well
