They seem to have got pretty good reviews so far - esp in 1/8th nitro on American clay tracks.
You've raced the BADMCC track before - how would you describe the track? Do you think I should set up for big jumps, high grip, low grip, etc? |
It's a hard abrasive surface with a fair amount of loose debris on it (you'll see me flicking stones off it throughout my marshalling stints).
As we go over many of the jumps the wrong way (we may try reversing direction on Sunday!), you can't really take them hard (crashing on jumps eats far more time than taking them easy - I learned this the hard way), so setup would be for a bumpy, dusty, low grip dirt track.
'Clay' and 'Blue-groove' setups would be for higher grip surfaces. Don't go too soft on your suspension, that just seems to make the car handle worse. There are no hairpin corners, so you setup for stability rather than steering.
