Different thoughts on 22 mid set-up (indoor/ozite)

[kayce]

Having been running my other 22 in rear-motor configuration all summer outside on clay, I built up another to run (mid-motor) indoor on ozite this winter - but seeing a few struggle with finding a mid set-up I thought I'd go completely against the norm and add weight (a lot) to the rear to help with traction and rotation along with relocating the inner camber link.

It WORKED marvelously -
- at my local club, against a field filled with typical B4.1's, extended B4.1, mid 4.1's, RB5's, and a couple of very experienced XXX-cr's. (maiden voyage during practice, qualified 3rd for the A-Finals, and ran away from the pack winning by 1/2 a lap)
