I see you guys have been getting a lot of track time in on the HT track. What setup have you found works best on that track?

I have been running the Mazda 787B. So far I have put a ball diff in it and 20 rear tires on it plus a very small amount of weight. The rest is stock. It is pretty fast so far. Our first race is this weekend so I guess I'll see how it stacks up against the competition.

I find the front tires are too slick. I am surprised you guys just replace the rear tires...

Its on Friday Carnaige.
edhchoe, I tried the 40 fronts but the car would just pivot around the front. Impossible to drive on the Hobby Town track. Going to the 20 rears got me more steering but did not make the car spin out like the 40 fronts.

So with the 20° rears you are taking away some of the traction from the rear to get more steering.. I see. Then the stock rears must be 10°.

I don't think so. The smaller the degree number, the stickier tire. Stocks are 50°. Putting on 20° rears with 40° fronts decreased how sticky the front seemed by adding more rear grip. I could be wrong, but I think you've got it backwards.

the rears are much stickier/softer than the fronts. They can't be all 50°. I put Atomic 30° fronts with stock rears and the car oversteers on right turns while the left turns are optimal...

The higher the number the harder the tire. The Mazda 787b comes with 50 fronts and 10 rears. I went to a 20 rear to gain some steering as the 40 Fronts were too much for the car.

I've been busy karting the past few weeks and haven't been able to make it out to the dNaNo track. I'm planning on going today if the weather lightens up a little. I'll bring my camera, and if there is a decent number of people I'll get a few clips.
EDIT: I got some footage yesterday. See here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CznTsf0NBFw. I literally just uploaded it, so it might not play for a another couple of minutes.

Try to get somebody to take some photos or get a little video if possible. We'd love to hear what kind of setups you guys are running on the HTUSA tracks, and what the tracks are like. I think Arch2b opened a thread about the HTUSA tracks in the 'Kyosho dNaNo Tracks' sub-forum.
