Hey fellas,
I am trying to get a nitro EDM together and I am having trouble figuring out what suspension I should use. It seems logical that the RC10GT tranny/bulkhead,rear suspension mount setup should be a good starting point, but where to from there? Do most guys use old RC10 suspensions on their cars? What about using the newer B4 suspensions? Suggestions? I am getting it together for the November Cooper's race, so it'll be racing on foams. I was hoping to use my B4 suspension, but the rear mounts don't look like they will jive with the GT stuff in the back. The B4 front suspension will work fine, I've machined arm mounts without much of the stock kickup (less caster), and I am also machining the chassis to accept the GT trans/bulkhead and whichever rear suspension I end up with, I just don't know which one to use. Any suggestions from you guys already running nitro EDM's would be helpful. Thanks,
Tommy
