XRAY - Model racing cars

What bodies would you recommend running on a t1fk for indoor carpet racing, T27 control tyre. Stock.

I have been racing the Dodge Stratus 190mm shell but what is the best body at the moment? Hw does the Mazda 6 shell perform?

Also will the TC3 springs fit on the Xray shocks??

Thankyou

Hi,

If you need a more agressive car with better reaction, then you should try the Mazda 6, I think this will be a fast bodyshell, especially for stock. You should try it.

Asso springs, never tested on the Xray shock so I havn't got a clue. You should get the Xray ones though, since it will be easier comparing setups with them, and they do perform perfectly for the Xray car so...

Best regards

the TC3 springs will fit on the shocks Ok but you may need to mess around with different front shock mounts to get the ride height right. I used the carpet front mount which is taller than standard. The only downside is severly reduced droop on the front end which may compromise your set up.

I think I used Associated green springs on the front and silver on the rear at Carlisle last time I was there. Dont know how this will apply to you as I was testing the moulded tub chassis at the time. (didnt like it, went back to 6 cell and old set up for finals)

Hi there TC3 springs do work with xray shocks as i have a friend who uses them on his xray shocks but still i would stick with xray springs for my shocks i hope this helps you sam

Well, I found the Mazda giving a much higher quantity of grip if compared with the Stratus 2.

This is not always good. Last Sunday, I found my car easier to drive with the Mazda, but faster with the Stratus2, especially in the straights.

The Vectra wil be a good choice either, probably a bit more agressive than the Stratus2.
