Hello there,

I have a question about a rain-setup for my NT-1.
What is a good starting setup for driving in the rain?
What kind a oil do i use in the diff's and shock's (thin or thick)?
More or less holes in the pistons (shock's)?
Do i use anti-roll bars?
And what about camber?
And the list goes on and on.

If somebody can give me some pointers, i'll be really thankful.

gr Bert

Because you are driving much slower you do ot create a ;ot of downforce and roll.

A good setup to start with is:
- no rear anti rollbar
- less camber (with kissling tires you can see on the wear that laess camber is needed)
- set the chassis high so it will not touch wet spots.
- in extreeme rain use a warm glowplug and a small cooling head (an old damaged head cutted down to 2 or 3 fins)

And another tip: try to practise with a driftcar, if you know how to drift is will be much easier to handle the car in rain when it spins out.

What was said above, and also try to increase your droop both front and rear for more chassis roll.
