Hey guys,

We have been running the T4 successfully on asphalt for a few races now, what setup changes should I begin with when changing to a low traction carpet. The track is very technical and small with a new carpet and no groove on it. We are running 10.5 boosted.

Besides the basic carpet setup anything else I should be in a look out for?? (Roll centers, diff oils, springs, etc)

Did you try a progressive spring up front?

Try to use more droop, and perhaps anti-dive for the front arms. It sure helps for low traction. Sometimes you can loose the screw a little bit which holds the center motor mount, so that the nut is not fully tightened, which allows the car to flex more towards the rear.
