If you look at U.S Durango driver Ryan Lutz he share's all his setups and info from races like it should be.

We add the set-ups onto the TD website as soon as we get them in from the drivers. Some are faster than others at sending them in. I've just added Hupo's from the last EOS today.
It's hard to add stuff that we are testing to the set-up sheet as it can change from race to race dependent on feedback from the racers. Some stuff doesn't work and some stuff does. Our team are testing new items pretty much every week as we try to find the next 0.1s to keep on the right side of the development curve.
The best thing to do is go and ask the driver about what they are doing and why. They will have 'nowhere to hide' and will appreciate your honesty in spotting something rather than a 'sly' look here and there. We do it to the AE and Losi guys, if they don't want you to know then it must be really good
Swapping the shocks to the back is an easy switch:
1: Measure wheelbase before switch
2: Flip wishbones over.
3: Adjust wheelbase by spacing hubs.
4: Mount shocks 1 hole in from your 'front' mounted position on the wishbone. The shock angle for the same hole will be different on the rear (they will be laid-down more), so you need to 'Stand' them back up a little. Moving them in hole will do this.
5: Use spacers on the tower to get the shocks vertical again.
6: Dremel wing to clear shocks.
There's no other 'magic' required.
