definetely....I want to find out how it works for C dog.....what I find also, as a personal thought, is that it matters what type of driver you are also. Are you a cautious driver that stays within the limits of your cars ability when cornering and throttling? Or do you test the cars traction and physical ability at every hairpin?

You wouldn't believe this if I told you, but..

My good friend has such good drivers discipline that he can use his stock engined mini Z and BEAT many racers who have the X speed in the car and tons of hop ups.
He has such good driver awareness, and runs an extremely tight race line that he beats them at every corner and every hairpin.

In general though, your estimates are right on with a cars physics. Personally I hope Cdog can find the perfect setup that works for him.

One last thing I found is that their are different thickness of ozite carpeting out there.....I never really knew that..until the ozite track owner mentioned it to me...maybe I ran on a different thickness of ozite than Cdog does....

at any rate....I hope it works out.....I know it took me over 6 months to find the perfect setup on my track I race on.

P.S.....I am no master of this stuff either...just a really avid micro RCer.
