Smile Tamiya ff03 set up tips

Hi,

I have just ordered a ff03 fwd touring car kit. I normally run a Schumacher mi4cxl but fancied the challenge of trying to compete with just front wheel drive. I will be racing on carpet indoors.

I know that its obviouslt going to be extremly different and quite a task but hopefully will be a bit of fun Any tips or advice would be appreciated

Thanks

They are fun to drive, but you won't compete, you lose a lot of time on corner exit. Front differential setup is very important, standard ball diff is hard to get tight enough, Spec-R gear diff is unreliable, Tamiya's own gear diff may be the best solution.
