Usually a buggy, TCs don't tend to soak bumps and don't jump very well...

I know it's for the RB5... Just kidding...

There are a few of roger's setups in the RB5 setup area, you can start from there.

I rarely change anything dramatic from the general set-up posted in the RB5 set-up and most people I know with the cars have adopted that as the starting point.

Just lately I have started to run with the front camber link out on the hub but that is about the only real change to the "base" set-up, I then just tune from there as the conditions dictate (normally only needs a change to the inboard link heights front and rear and the occassional change of wheel base)

Running a Novak 6.5L motor 23/76 at the moment rather than the LRP.

Remember that is for proper cells though, car weighs around 1640g all in.
