Ok, finally, i got a new car with good strong steering and a good drivetrain. (my old subie was choking)
-despite common sense, you usually need softer tires in the back. Today i used Bit char-g soft (pink) in back and Bit char-g hards (blue) in front. Worked beautifully.
- since i was lazy, i used the stock stabius. It worked fine, but the driving was kinda bumpy and incosistent. Springs would help.
-Single stock cell, TOMY 3.0 and orange gearing (couldnt find my blue acceleration gears today..damn things)
-Stock Lancer body (heavier than most its size)
-stock ride height
So, it worked really well. I did a slalom sorta thing down a gentle slope on plywood, and it was sticky enough to make the car not slip out too much but just drift a little around the turns. Lots of fun. The lancer body is kinda heavy, it tipped over on the bumps while sliding sometimes. The skyline body seems lighter (but no lower) I tried it on my big wood floor and it worked well till the tires built up dust. Gotta clean em pretty often.
12-1 (blue) would have probably worked better for more consistent drifts because the wheels are spinning faster going into a turn.
Thats all for me tonight, i wanna formula34 to try out.
