  • Page 18: Tuning Tips

    :: Tuning Tips Tips for Beginners: Before making any changes to the standard setup, make sure you can get around the track without crashing. Changes to your vehicle will not be beneficial if you can’t stay on the track. Your goal is consistent laps. Once you can get around the track consistently, start tuning your vehicle.

  • Page 19: Ride Height

    :: Tuning Tips (cont.) Front Camber Links: Changing the length of the camber link is considered a bigger step than adjusting the ball end height on the tower. Shortening the camber link will give the front end less roll and quicken steering response. Lengthening the camber link (or raising the ball end) will give the front more roll and slower steering response.
