- Corally SP12X - Set-up for low- mid grip-technical-mid size track -

Words: Drivingpro

Track: Low to mid grip levels, quite technical, medium sized track (outdoors)

We don't use traction additive

we don't have a stock pro12 class in NZ, just open motor and batteries to 4300mah. 8 minute races. So i usually run an 8x2 or 10x2 armature.

Gearing: 102t spur to 27 t pinion

I've been running 1.5 degrees negative camber.
About 2-3mm down stop. (this limits the use of the springs, which can be advantegous)
Running the softer (standard) spring for the shock.
Standard shock oil.
Running the soft t-bar. (non standard)
I put a drop of the damper fluid in the side dampers before every run.
I run the pink corally rears if the weather is cold. And the kawada 1/12th soft compound rear tyres if it is a hot day (seems to love the heat, good if it is warm-hot since we run 8 minutes)

At first I wasn't able to get much steering with even gold stars. But with the setup above i've been able to get ample steering and consistency with silver fronts (not silver star)

Awesome car i must say. I really don't know why some people change the front with an associated front


- Corally SP12X - NZ Nationals 2007 -

 

I managed to get 2nd at the NZ nationals with the setup i posted earlier.

Learned alot about the diff, and how to best set that up.

Low traction. No tyre additives allowed:

Used the hard t-bar

Kawada rears in the extreme heat worked brilliantly, pink corally rears shined with cold - moderately hot conditions.

Silver fronts.

10x2 Vantage v2 motor (endurance brushes *DOH* )
