:: 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. Make only ONE adjustment at a time, testing it before making another change.
PAGE 19
:: Tuning Tips (cont.) Wheelbase Adjustment: You have three options for rear hub spacing, Forward, Middle, & Back. The kit setting of Middle is the most neutral, and will be used most often. For improved handling in bumps or rhythm sections, try moving the hubs to the Back position. This can also make the car handle better in 180° turns.
PAGE 20
:: Tuning Tips Trailing Axle: Trailing axle is the distance from the king pin to the axle that “trails” behind the pin. The B5 includes inserts to allow adjustments for trailing axle to three positions: 4mm (standard), 3mm, and 2mm. The standard setup uses 4mm trailing axle for the most stable handling. For more corner entry steering, try the 3mm trailing axle option. It is important to adjust the ackermann and wheelbase settings to match the trailing axle adjustment.
