Hey I have just got a TC3 to replace my old FWD tamiya, has anyone got a rough setup I can use to run the car on a slippery wood floor as well as a base setup for carpet? I want to run fat yellow minipins at first but despite giving less grip setup should surely be the same as front and rear traction loss is equal? Also any tips on little chasis tweaks, spring rates oil viscoscity and gearing for longbenton wood floor? I have read on another page that people are running 1-2deg's neg camber F+R and 2mm rear toe in but have seen no mention of front track dimensions or diff settings so again any help would mbe much appreciated.
