XRAY - Model racing cars

I solely run the 3mm chassis, the 4mm simply doesn't work for me.
I think this is because i use the brass battery tray which also works as a chassis stiffener, then combined with the 4mm the car simply gets too stiff.

The shock holes and rebound also depend on the shock oil you're using.
Most are using 500 or 450.
With the stock oil and springs the car is overdamped so the springs can't do their job properly. Might want to try 4 in the front and 3 in the rear or visa versa, if you don't want to change the oil.
I use the 3-2 setup because the car becomes really good on turn in and it doesn't squat a lot under acceleration.

If you buy the stratus mount it like this:


The small splitter lip on the front will give it better turn in.
Keep the sideskirts parallel with the chassis, this will keep the air underneath the car.

Wow learning a lot here guys thanks for that!

Splitterlip on the front of the wing you mean and keeping the skirts real low. But why do you have made the opening on your reartire hole so weird? Does it do something have to do with the air flow?

Pff so much options on the springs and on the shocks i'm really confused now, i'm having a order this evening so i need to order oil cst 500 to get the desired damping and i need to order springs? But the grip is mostly allright and maybe it will be to much changes in one time? Standard shocks are not capable for racing than, i want to know if i can do other oil in it and purple springs for the rear as said earlier in this topic?

Thanks for all the help, i really appreciate it guys!

Ok my order is underway so i hope that with these parts i can make progression on my laptime's!

Do you guys take the corner upgoing the straigth full throttle or lift it before on throttle?

I'm currently on 16,210 secs on a lap, just a second behind you guys, do you have some poiters getting myself under the 16 secs border?

Drove it today with the new parts on it, i had much more steering and a quicker respons. But only in the corner after the straight i have some loss of grip..

I think that my rebound needs to be set at 50% with 500cst oil because the 25% rebound is not enough....

Can someone help me out? What do i get if the suspension is to soft because of too low rebound?
