Hi,

My indoor car was really well set up well last week this week at the same track (different layout) I really struggled with grip all I changed was the standard front drive shafts to the Xray ECS ones and swapped the plastic shocks for alloy but left out the foam insert and drilled the top cap.

Checked the car on my set up station and all looked ok, so I can't see it was the shocks so was it the ECS drive shafts giving me alot more front end grip as the back was all over the place :?

Any ideas ? if it's the drive shafts I'll stick the standard one's back in.

Thanks.

The rule of thumb is as grip comes up remove shock rebound.

You suddenly removed it all (how much was there before?), I would suggest your problem somehow relates to the changes in shock.

Hi,

Before I was running the plastic shocks with the foam insert and 100% rebound.

I would either go back to your original setup, or post what you are using.

We can then see if there is something obvious that could be done.
