Default Atomized B44 setup for Astro

Hi guys,
I am new to the car, I will actually debut it this coming weekend at the Swedish Nationals held at the very bumpy astro turf track in Stockholm.

I am turning to you including the team guys to have input on the latest bumpy astro setups for the car.
Worth mentioning I guess is that it has Losi shocks.

I look forward to your input, thanks in advance.

Best regards,
Roy

Hi,

I tend to start with the following for pretty much everywhere I race in the UK, be grass or astro

Front:
35wt
Red Piston
Internal Spring
Middle on Shock Tower
Inner hole on Wishbone
Silver Spring

Camber Link:
Inner on carbon plate with 1mm washer underball stud
Outer on Hub Carrier

Rear:
30wt
Blue Piston
2 mm spacer to stop driveshaft popping out of the outdrive
Inside hole on shock tower
Inner hole on wishbone
Pink Spring

Camber Link:
Outer hole on carbon plate with 4mm spacers under the ball stud
Middle hole on Hub Carrier

Other:
Short Wheel Base
1 Washer under anti squat plate
Wishbones level all round
If it's really bumpy I run a diff in the front, otherwise a One way.

If the bumps are more random than undulating and / or there are some biggish jumps I tend to straighten the rear shocks up and remove the anti squat spacer



Hope that helps.

Thanks Jonathan,
I would definitely say that the jumps are biggish and the bumps are many and just about everywhere, maybe except on the straight.
Here is a link to a image of the reworked Nationals layout:
