Default New to the B4...

So,
I've just got hold of a B4 in preperation for the Petit Race in Jan... having raced a 4wd before (and only once at that!), I'm itiching to get racing with a 2wd.. however don't want to balls it up!!

Been doing some searching on here, and have a few Q's.

Weight - I've had a XXX before, and had a load of lead in the front... am I correct in thinking the B4 likes the lead at the back under the rear brace? Any other places I need to be putting it?
What about the weight with LiPo, did see one thread mentioning some people like it with weight, others without...

Given I'm going to be running at the Petit (full carpet, with jumps ), i've had a few thoughts on a base setup, going off info from here;

Front
Blue springs, #2 piston, 35wt oil, mid top, in on arm, Longest camber link, -1deg camber, 25deg castor

Rear
Silver springs, #1 piston, 30wt oil, mid top, in on arm, longest camber link, -2deg camber, short wheelbase, 1deg anti squat.

Tyres I would guess at schui yellow mini-pins... although stagger ribs on the front have been suggested???

Is this a good place to start off with? Anything else people can suggest?

Cheers
Ed
