Locking in the rear on a TRF201
 
Hi guys, where I run my TRF201 the dirt track conditions can vary quite a bit. Medium to better grip days the car really goes well but when it gets loose the rear end can be a bit of a handful when powering out of corners.

Any suggestions on how to lock the rear in more in such conditions? I'm currently running the optional 1 degree rear hubs for more toe-in.

Thanks in advance.

Softer rear spring, raise the inner rear ball studs, and/or lay down the rear shocks further.

Spend some time here too... http://users.telenet.be/elvo/

besides the rear hubs, are you running kit setup?

I found the kit setup to be very good with forward traction, in fact too much traction that is does not steer well enough.

Steering as been always always a problem on the 201, just add more weight on the front of the car and under lipo,swapping the C hubs around to give 20deg of caster does help on technical carpet tracks.
Lighter shock oil and springs should help settling the car ,plus look at your throttle exponential'if u reduce it u may find that the wheels will not spin out of control when powering out of corners.
