RETed will become famous soon enough
Looking foward(?) to the discussions in this section...
(So long as the fanboi's don't get stupid in here... *sigh*)

It's been a while since we did this thing, since they closed down our track back in 2006. *sigh*
We're all waiting for a decent, legal option to open up at this time.
(I don't consider sliding in a stadium parking lot marked with cones a good option. )

I've documented my experience with the FC chassis set-up on my website.
Hardest part is trying to get more steering angle when compared to the Nissan S-chassis.
We're giving away at least 5+ degrees more of steering angle to them.
There's two options that I know of right now - modified tie rod point and all those steering rack spacers that don't quite give you enough with stock tie rods.

Keeping these cars are tricky due to low polar moment.
It's nothing like sliding those "lazy" Nissan S-chassis!
