I am also really happy with my 210 on the stock chassis, our track is really tight and technical so the shorter wheel base is great.
It's varnished cork with carpet, we use it sparingly as it helps you drive faster.

Chassis - Normal
Batteries - Saddles down the middle
Tires - Schumacher Mini Spike, the transition between the surfaces is less harsh than with pins.
Battery Placement - Furtherest forward.
Front Shocks - 35wt (Associated), 6 hole @ 1.3mm
Rear Shocks - 30wt (Associated), 6 hole @ 1.5mm
Antisquat - 1.5deg
Toe In - 3deg
Caster - 25deg (I use the RDRP inserts to achieve it)
Wheel base - 2 inserts either side of the rear hubs.
Ride Height - 18mm (Front) / 20mm (Rear)

Due to the car being so light the damping doesn't need to be anywhere near as hard as the standard chassis hence the bigger holes in the rear. It's easier on the tires too because your not scrubbing them as much with the less weight.
