I'd go for a 8,5 turn and a proper sensored ESC, where you can select from different throttle profiles (to alter the amount of punch you want, on different surfaces).

Other than that as a beginner you should foremost make sure the car is in shape. Don't think too much about setups in the beginning, especially the AE std. setups work very well on all kinds of tracks.

This means removing the dampers, make sure all suspension arms move freely. Take off the springs, check if the dampers are smooth (without air or missing oil). Make sure the diff is smooth. Set the slipper for a little traction control (slight slip).

Myself I prefer a much larger rear wing than the std. B4 wing.

If you find the car too nervous >> try with negative steering expo (if your radio can do that)

Good luck!
