Cat 2000 - I now have one (and need help)....

[Nick Goodall]

Well guys,

After all that talk yesterday and me feeling all nostalgic i went and picked up my old Cat from my Dad's mate.

As you can see it requires a bit of cleaning, all the shocks need rebuilding and there's carpet stuck everywhere but nothing major. It all feels quite nice, loads of play in all the joints etc but it'll be ok for now.

I'm going to race it this Sunday at Lee's track CML Raceway so should be interesting to see how it goes.

Can anyone remember what set-up to run on this car? I haven't run one for 8 years or so now so not surprisingly can't really remember anything...

I was thinking of the following if this sounds about right?

Front - Schumacher Shocks, Losi Red Pistons with 35wt Oil and Grey Springs

Rear - Schumacher Shocks, Losi Orange Pistons with 35wt Oil and Red Springs

I think all the camber positions and shock positions are about right so i'm not too worried about that, just can't remember what we used to run in the shocks so thought this may be a good place to start?

Anyway, here's some pics - i was happy to see it's still got the Alloy gearboxes front and rear (lower) and also full Carbon and even my old Electrics!!
