Default TRF511 2009 euros winning setup

Here's the winning setup from the 2009 Euros. This is Hupos setup - which is the same for the other guys cars including eventual winner Marc Rheinard, since hupo setup all the cars like his.

Man, that setup sheet sucks - I need to design a new one with all the options on there

never mind... I think they guys also ran 12 degree alloy front hub carriers. Hupo ran the new flex topdecks but the other guys ran normal. All the drivers ran the new grey ball cups. Think that's about it.

I don't know what he settled on, he had some trishbits and some edit foams - not sure what the guys ended up with.
Actually, I do have the winning B4 setup also: using Tamiya shocks and Trishbits hopups.

What springs are they using? My Tamiya option springs are all white in colour but the sheets above imply that "Tam" springs are available in actual colours to match their strength... the all white scheme is really, really dumb IMHO.

The 3 grades of Tamiya springs are all white, but have either Red, Yellow or Blue dabs of paint on the tops of them. Hard to see, especially if they have rubbed off. I use permanant marker pens to mark them better.
