Just wondering what u guys use. When u look at your maxx head on are the a arms set level or are they slightly above this would be for a racing application.
 
Revo: Level

T-Maxx: Raised, but I do not race the T-Maxx. I would always keep it as low as possible for racing. Look at the March issue of RCCA. They show a T-Maxx race in one of the back pages. All the trucks rounding the corner have their front a-arms level or near level. I would think race prep has more to do with shock arm locations on the towers.
 
I've seen guys set up their Maxx's for races using something very similiar to that of the 1/8 buggies. Mostly level. The guys that stick with the stock setup (mostly raised) run into problems in the corners because of the higher center of gravity. Remember, you're faster on the ground than in the air. (Although big air is cool !!) Keep them level and stay in control.
