i don't remember the tire pressures.
the wheel offsets are 40, not a staggered setup

hmm... no i never had a chance to play with RC cars.

damn i wish they made a streets of willow track in GTR evo

well next time check tire pressure buy one of those $10.00 tire pumps and fool around with tire pressure at the track...

get some spacers 5mm and 10mm spacers and try those too...

streets is a good track to get your car set up. It experiences pretty much every type of turn or situation out there.

Big Track is good when you want to test your limits however if your car is not set up, no point in testing your limits

streets is good for setup like ^^^ said... it really shows you the limits of what the car/driver can do. your constatnly working the steering wheel and engine.

Big track it's more top end... for people that want to do a smoke screen show.

tire pressure plays a major part which alot of people miss.
I notice that when i was took the miata to the track
in the past I was playing with tire pressure of between 28-32
suspension setting at full stiff in front and 1-2 notch softer in rear.
I like how the rear kicks out a bit with the stock sway.
