Hi ya

You may find it easier to try the rear motor configuration if you are running on a low grip surface like polished floor. It will allow the rear of the car to slide more through the turn and provide much better steering.

It might be worth looking at Jorn's setup from the Reedy Race. I know it was on dirt but the grip levels maybe similar and certainly closer than compairing to an astro setup.

Hi, I have to agree, the rear motor set up on slippy floors is the way to go, we ran at the York 24 hour race last weekend on a combination of slippy floor and carpet and I don't think we would have gone as well with mid motor.

I tried my 210 MM4 on polished floor and I couldn't push the car at all. It would understeer like crazy out of turns
