Universal Philosophy

🏎️ Universal Competitive Setup Philosophy

Most fast builds follow this formula:

1️⃣ Low center of gravity 2️⃣ Rollers tuned for cornering stability 3️⃣ Mass dampers for jump control 4️⃣ Brake tuned for track slope

💡 Secret most beginners miss: The fastest racers tune for the track, not the chassis.

The same car may run:

different rollers different brakes different tires

depending on the race layout.

⚙️ Important Setup Decisions Roller Size Size Purpose 12–13 mm faster corner entry 17 mm balanced 19 mm stability Brake Setup

Common materials:

blue sponge (light braking) white sponge (medium) rubber (strong braking)

Purpose:

slow the car before jumps prevent lane-out Mass Dampers

These absorb landing shocks.

Common placements:

side damper front damper rear damper hanging damper

Purpose:

reduce bounce stabilize jumps Tire Hardness Tire Use soft grip hard stability super hard speed

Common combo:

hard front super hard rear
