Have a look at the link below. Personally I like Darren's silverstone set up.

lol thanks got it now .also could any one let me know what affect putting spacers under the front camber link on the front does as it would apear most people are running up to 2.5mm

[Chris Elworthy]

It will alter the roll centre of the front. From my experience with the 22 less or no spacer under the inner ball stud will make the front end bite less thus making the car slightly less aggressive in high grip conditions. More spacers under the inner ball stud will do the opposite making the car feel more direct and aggressive.

Mate, doing a good job. Keep asking and discussing cause i find it really interesting to see what other ideas people have, awesome to have different outlooks! Cheers

For got to add to my set up the only weight I run is the cream one

[vrooom]

I didnt realise adding spacer inside would incease the "grip" on front end but wouldnt that cause more bump steer?

[cryer-evo]

Hi there yes it changed the angle of the wheel wene the car leans over giving you more front end grip as for bump stair yes it could do but not 100% on that I run no spacers on the chassis side and 1mm on the stering side . Bump steir is not always a bad thing ether so long as its not ridiculous like it can be on old tamiya cars hope this helps

Help needed peaple right the
rear of my 22
I have gone up in oil from 20 oil to 27.5 oil to stiffen the rear up
No change to position off shocks so tower out side hole and wishbone out side hole :-) fills lots stiffer

Haw ever I then change shock position to middle on tower and inside of wishbone like peaple have sir-chested I do
Then pushed car down and to me it fills a lot softer almost to the point it fills like there is 20 oil in there but I no there isn't could some one shed some light on this for me I'm sorry if I sound like a dick but I am confused

You need to use middle holes top outside bottem don't ever change this , try the 6 hole inserts in rear . Once you have a setup that works don't change it just spring rate , and a good pair of thumbs

Why?

[paul whittock]

If it ain't broke don't try and fix it

so far your advice has been very poor, and if you cant back it up then maybe keep it to yourself.

[paul whittock]

All I'm trying to say is when you have found the right setup ON THE DAY just try racing the buggy. Easy for me to say I could drive a shoe box fast

On advice from another oOpler, the ignore function makes the losi thread so much better.
