Losi XX used to work everywhere with one simple setup!

Front - 35Wt Oil, 556 Pistons (Drilled out Red pistons, 2 holes same as orange), Blue Springs (Green or Silver if you needed a tad more steering)

Rear - 30Wt Oil, 556 Pistons (as above), Pink springs.

Do you know which car it is you have? If it's the CR rear end you want to run the shocks on the inner hole of the rear wishbone, middle of the tower. If it's the older rear-end (With outboard toe-in) we used to modify the wishbones by drilling a further two holes outward to the standard 3 you used to have.....

Fron was always outside hole of the front wishbone, and middle or inner of the tower (again depending if you have the 2 or 3 holes in the top).

Good memory Nick.... it was a simple formula but always worked well, even indoors - I generally ran green springs on the front.

A better car in my opinion than the XXX that replaced it, which was just as safe/easy to drive but lacked the precision & steering of its predecessor.

That's pretty much what I run in mine at TORCH.

What track are you going to be racing it at?
