Give yourself negative camber. this positive camber will make things worse.
more the front shocks out on the arm.
Load your car up with Rudebits Brass.....
80g under lipo
heavy under servo.

and you will be fine!

Cheers Lee I'll have a go at removing those tyres and refitting them properly. I'm sure either brute force or acetone will get them off

By shorten the front link on the hub do you mean just turn the turnbuckle to make it shorter or move the ball studs closer together (and adjust the turnbuckle)? Sorry for my ignorance! What effect does moving the inner ball studs to the outside position have?

I've aquired some lead flashing to play around with weight as I can't afford rudebits this month so I'll try and match the weights/positions as best I can until next month.

So I've heard Seriously though I'm well chuffed he takes the time to help beginners like me. Tamiya are lucky to have him and I'm hoping by indirectly sucking up to him he'll come back and answer more of my novice questions
