Default Updated Set Up includes Big Bores

Hi yah all
I run Big Bore shocks on my 2wd for the first time yesterday indoors on carpet with jumps and slippery sections.
With a variation of different pistons on the way for testing I run very close to my normal set up as listed below but with this combination of oils and pistons.
The result was really good but unfortunately got beat by Darren Bloomfield in the final (he is good though!!) LOL


Front - Big Bore
Piston standard 5 hole - New Super Hard Orange
40w Oil Losi
Shock mounted outside hole on wishbone and middle on the tower
3 mm washer under the inner side of link - middle hole
Outerr link on long position
Kick up - 30 degree


Rear - Big Bore
Piston 5 hole drilled to 1.4 with a Yellow Spring
30w Losi
Drilled additional very inside hole on wishbone and one in from the outside on the tower.
Short wheelbase
Camber link inner on the lower outer hole of the tower with it at the longest on the hub
0 deg rear habs

Under speedo weight - 92g and this never comes out of mine!
Under Lipo weight should be adjusted subject to what type of track.
If there are little jumps, rumble strips etc that upset a normal car then run under lipo 74g

Ride height at 20mm

Schumacher Staggers up front - old type with no foam
Schumacher pins on the rear
