In my opinion, the factory set-up is very forgiving and a good place to start. I have had the car just over two months, and am finally thinking I will start tinkering, but to be honest the car drives great on my track with the factory set-up.
The only thing I did was add some significant weight in the back. The car seems balanced for NIMH batteries, so the rear end is a bit light with the LIPO batteries I am running. I added 42 grams of weight, in the form of those losi stick-on weights, in the space behind the battery tray. Three 7 gram weights per side, stuck together, and then stood on end, fit in that spot with no interferance and look tidy too. There is also some really nice stainless chassis weight kits available on EBAY specifically for the TRF502X.
