Maybe the kit set-up is just too good.
Ran the car in rear configuration today in Troisdorf (sandy astro) with worn Multibytes in the rear and high-profile Staggers up front, 1 degree aluminum hubs. The only thing I changed was taking the shims from the rear camber link and adding them to the front. Although my Max was slightly slower (non-blinki SXX and Vampire Bloodline 17.5) than the LRP Challenge guys with their blinki 13.5 turns X12 motors, I ended up second overall. Not too bad for running the first time on our new track layout without any previous practice!

So where are everyones setups?

I tried the car indoors yesterday on carpet with slicks (thats what we are allowed here) and liked it. All I changed was a harder rear spring from avid white to yellow but I am still looking for a little more steering.

Flat landings/over jump from maybe 1m height (only one of those jumps) will bottom but not bounce that much

Thoughts are welcome

Try my one or really anyone of the ones for smooth astro on the petit site or in this thread.
I haven't changed a lot from the outdoor settings which is a suprise for me. Maybe Im just getting better

I worked a little more on my setup (3 posts up) and have 15% dragbrake and 2x10gm (20gm total)up front instead of 10 total.

Best change today was I tried a shorty foward in the battery hole and thought it worked really well. This will be my go to setup for now.

Still looking for a little more on power steering... suggestions?

I also tried the narrow bulkhead thinking that I might gain a heap more steering but wasn't any difference so went back to the standard.

I think that tires (slicks) are playing a big part with on power steering, but Im happy with how it is working out with it only being the second time on carpet with the yok

My car gained a lot of steering when I went softer in shock oil in the front. It was just too much for my local track.

I used this setup on a tight indoor setup: http://teamyokomo.nl/setups/BMAX2MR/...IO_BASE_SV.pdf

Still needs work, but for me it's a good starting setup for a tight indoor track.

After a few changes here is my new setup
I am using TD springs that sit "ok" under the collars. Ill be looking at making them a little larger or getting another brand.

I also gave the tires a really good clean (slicks with addative) and this helped

Here is my current setup, also used it on indoor carpet. Changed the tires and front springs, and it was good to go.
