DWBryan 09-18-2005, 08:11 PM Tires will be a factor, I have a concrete oval and foams work well for me on that. For the dirt ( if it was me) I would add extra - Camber ( leaned in) on the right side and have the left prety much strait up and down or maybe even a little + camber one hthe LR. Id try 35w in the front and 30w in the rear shocks and run the blue springs on the L and the gold on the R. Try it and see if yoou like it. Always start at a nutral setup and ajust it 1 step at a time and if you dont like a step, just put it back and go to the next one. I cant say I kow that ajustments from experiments but it just where I would go to 1 step at a time. BAR 26 09-18-2005, 09:26 PM Thanks that helps!!!!! what kind of foams should i get for it??? yokman 09-19-2005, 08:52 AM i have a dirt oval in my back yard.it is a 80 foot run line.dwbrian is pretty much right onwith his set up. i would also slam it to the ground.the lower you can get it the better.also a little trick that you can do to get it to drive through the corners better is to lock up the front diff.the 18t dosent have but a couple colors of springs to choose from either so put the heaviest on the right front.i run 3 deg of camber in the right front, 1 to 2 in the right rear and on the left i run about 1 to 1 1/2 positive.tires are always a big factor,try a few different patterens and compounds and go tear it up.
