- Team Losi Racing 22 - Steve Kirk - Batley - March/April 2011 -

It's very rare i post setups on here but it appears some people are tiring of their mid motor losi as the cant find a setup that has good rear grip/balance in lower grip uk conditions. hopefully this setup will help restore the love for this awesome car.

I was off work for the first six weeks of owning my 22 and was able to put many hours in testing the car mainly at batley buggy clubs outdoor track, a grass/astro track which at the min is bumpy/cut up and slippy as hell in places!!
I have experimented with every tuning option on the car including many piston oil combos inc 4,5,6 hole pistons tapers vs standard etc the setup below is an absolute joy to drive, so forgiving, locked in and stacks of grip with no signs of any untoward behavior.
I am sure some will instantly dis the piston/oil choice but this wast derived from 60/70 hours at the track testing

The 4 deg squat is acheived by using the HRC 3deg shim with the HRC 0deg shim and the 3deg HRC insert. Then just put a 1mm spacer under each side of the speedo/motor mount between mount and the chassis.
