Default Rear motor setup?

Anyone used the 210 in rear motor format yet?
The reason i ask is i was running mid4 at stotfold on sunday, normally this is great round there, but as the temp dropped during the day the track became very damp & was like driving on ice, had schumacher greens all round & was still sliding all over the place
So i have decided to try the RM3 setup for the winter series next sunday as i have been told this will provide more grip & conditions look like they will be similar
Have had a look on the durango site setups but can't find 1 for RM3 or any infact for rear motor
Any advice much appreciated

Possibly, took about 40 minutes to change but i was constantly refering to the manual to make sure i got it right, could get it down to about 25 i suppose so yeah it could be done
Going to start with rm3 as it's a early start & the track will deffo be damp, might switch it back if we get a hot day but i can't see that happening
I think once all the parts are available i will get a spare gearbox to make the switch times much faster
You got your 210 yet?

You sure the schumacher greens didnt have something to do with that? I know one guy tried it yesterday at Broxtowe and it was the wrong way to go in the wet, BB greens works a lot better when its wet or damp

The guys who were on the bb's were just as bad really, maybe a little better but not by much, trouble is control tyre for the series is schumacher so we are stuck with them

I feel for you guys having to run Schuy greens in the wet. I think most at my club would rather strap a banana skin to their wheels. Definitely Ballistic or Db MultiBytes ‘B’ compounds on the rear when wet. Although quite a few use Schuy greens on the front for 2WD.
