Setup & Tuning

Wheelbase
The shorter the wheelbase the easier it is for the car to rotate in the corner. Also, when you adjust
the wheelbase by moving the rear axles forward, more weight will be put over the rear axle of the
car. It can cause an oversteer situation
Basic Setup: 2mm

Ackerman
More Ackermann means bigger difference in steering angle between the two front wheels and
vice verse. Add more shims generates more Ackermann effect. Less shims means less Ackermann
effect.
