XRAY - Model racing cars

Hi i have a new xb8EC...
someone can help me for the new set-up?

i heve read some different set-up about the oil diff.
With old my TQ i race with 5000(F) 7000(C) and 1000(R)...but i now i have read that with the new EC is advised to run with more high in the rear (like 10000 or more).

what is the best compromise with the new EC?
I have see the set-up of Yannick Aigoin and i like this (camber caster etc.etc.) but about oil diff!?!
thanks in advance to all for the help guys!

PS: the track is :track traction medium-high, track surface smooth
(medium)

SORRY! for my bad english! i'm Italian

SPIDYX, Heavier oil will make the car more aggressive for sure and that is what most of the team guys are playing with. If your track is a medium to high bite then I would run heavier oils like 7000 front, 7000 middle, 7000 rear. And when the track had a little less bite then I like 5,5,5. But the only way you will learn what you like best is to try different oil set-ups and see what feels best to you.

ok thanks for the help... i will try 7000f 7000c 10000r.

Even if......you use 1000r the buggy is more easy to drive when turn off the corner (my old set-up TQ)...but not is more aggressive. And instead with 10000r or + the car is more difficult to drive in exit of corner and you must dose the throttle for not U-TURN.

SPIDYX

That's correct but I am turning faster times using this driving style.

"Pin-it-to-win-it" .

Ops sorry i forgot...the value of oil-dif is in CPS or WT? about the question 7000, 7000, 10000.

So Jason what driving style are you using with the EC compared to the TQ? I have somewhat of an idea but I'd like to hear your thoughts if you don't mind.

SPIDYX, I know the 7,7 front and center works well but I have not tried 10000 in the rear but its worth a shot just to see how it would work. The most I have put in the rear is 7 and I did like it, just a little to aggressive on tracks that do not offer allot of traction. It makes the car a little to responsive and most of the time you waste too much time always trying to correct the car.


Dbarnes, The only race I have put on the car was at Silver State and that is a different driving experience all together. But it was so much better there than last year. My car was as fast as any car there I just broke stupid things that cost me. So far I think the car is a great improvement from the TQ and time will tell.


Jason Branham

Ok Jason i will try 10 in the rear and i tell you how it works ok?

Sorry but the measure of diff-oil is in WT or CPS... i have in italy both the oil (Xray oil are in WT and Mugen oil are in CPS..etc.etc..). I say you this because the measurement are different how u know!
