Thanks for all the kind words.
I finished setting my car up quite some time ago, and the goal was to add as little weight as possible.
I felt like I was able to make good on that, here were the results.
I ended up settling with 50g's added inside the front diff housing.
And two 10g weights added beside the rear diff case to create some more side scrub. I found the higher you mount the weights, the more side scrub you will achieve - great for countering excessive oversteering/spin outs :P
And that's all the weight I added to the chassis.
Here's is the rest of my supporting setup:
-FRONT-
Camber: -12*
Toe: 0*
Kick Up: N/A
Caster: Approximately 7*
Ride Height: 9mm
Springs: Unknown Brand 30lbs Spring
Bumper Weight: Overdose Aluminum Bumper Brace
Sway-Bar: None
Shock Oil: Team Associated 20wt
Upper Shock Position: Top row Overdose damper tower, second from the outside
Lower Shock Position: Inner most position Overdose lower arm
Diff: None
Other: Damper pistons have been slightly bored out, 50g weight added inside front diff
-REAR-
Camber: 0*
Toe Block: 0*
Kick Up: None
Ride Height: 7.5mm
Springs: RC926 Hybrid 1.3mm diameter sprigns Blue/Blue (Soft)
Sway-Bar: None
Shock Oil: Associated 10wt
Upper Shock Position: Top row Overdose damper tower, second from the inside
Lower Shock Position: Furthest Outward along lower Overdose arms.
Diff: RC926 Aluminum Diff w/ Steel Outdrives + Stock Plastic Ring + Bevel Gear
Other: 1mm pro-squat, dampers are running custom 6 hole pistons, 20g added to rear damper tower
My FDR is set at 7.5
I run on a surface very similar to polished concrete.
Unfortunately after getting this thing set up to my liking I only made it back to the track twice in the last 4 weeks. I am very happy with the setup though, I just need more wheel time with the thing to shed the rust ^^b
In comparison to my FR-D, I must say the Type-C is a very different beast. It's really enjoyable to drive in a very different way. As opposed to the FR-D which required small steering inputs/angle adjustments, my Type-C requires cs style steering inputs at the same gyro gain levels as my FR-D. I love this aspect of the chassis, as I find it far more enjoyable. My FR-D was basically easy mode RWD drifting to me, which isn't a bad thing, I was really able to push that car at any point on the track without negative repercussions. I am still learning how to push my Type-C in a similar fashion, but my hands are adjusting to the new driving style required to push the Type-C, and I'm getting much more comfortable and confident with each outing. The Type-C also builds up speed out of slow corners a lot faster, and in general has a quicker pace. What it lacks in comparison to the FR-D is angle, but this also factors into it holding more speed around the track. Overdose lower arms aren't the greatest for RWD when running a low scrub, lower offset wheel combo. I ran into clearance issues since I don't run rounded front tires either, but it wasn't too hard to sort everything out and get it running the way I wanted. I'm really enjoying this chassis, even though I haven't had a lot of wheel time yet ^^;;
Sorry for the essay ^^v
