What tyres are you running? I've gone for blocks on my yoke as wherever I've been with mini spikes I get so much grip roll it's just untrue.
As for setup of a Kyosho I've got no idea

I ran staggers on my Xls The other year and again so much grip that's why I'm trying blocks, you want yellow compond for the dry and if you want greens or blue for the wet but if it's wet it's fun to slide them around

Use a starting setup. I would go with 2 hole front, 40wt oil, 1 hole rear with 30 wt oil. Springs i go one or two heavier on the front compared to the rear. Ujs just under level front and rear. Other info you might like is on the vintage car set up page. Setting a standard zxr slipper is a doddle, put car on the deck either on carpet or astro, hold car flat to floor and hit throttle. If it takes off its too tight, if you set it so it sounds like the pads slipping but sounds like its struggling and the cars also trying to pull away then its set.

Its only the rear tyre that you need to really worry about if it rains - green compound Ballistic Buggy's minispikes seem to be the go-to tyre in the wet - green compound minispikes from Schumacher are OK but not quite as good as the Ballistic Buggy tyres. Justin - if you were getting grip-roll last year then I suggest that was more to do with car setup? You will probably find that you will end up trimming the outer row of blocks off your front tyres... if its dry?

Cheers for the input guys, out of interest is there any way I can get rid of the one way? I'm guessing it's in the slipper?

Get a nyloc nut and tighten all the way up but never tried it.

Guess you mean a nut the opposite end to the slipper adjuster nut?
