Default Inverse Rake Rideheight?

Been looking at a few example setups for the CAT SX. Why do people run the front higher than the rear on them? On a real full size race car you'd never do that as it would put air under the car and generate lift.

As far as I know we don't run the front higher than the rear.

Personally I aim for the front to be a tad lower, as it lifts on power.

Nah I was reading some setups posted on the RCMech forum thread. I guess they weren't authoritative ones

Try Chris Longs setup on page 3 of the setups.Its the best by far but make sure you dont run a lipo thats too light. Thats where i have been going wrong.
