Caster Camber and Over Steer

[MaxxRunner]

Well I finally got my Maxx up to speed with the Picco .21 upgrade, and I can keep up with the rest of the local pack in the speed catagory, But I cannot get the truck to keep from oversterring in the corners. We run on a small oval track with one table top and a few small whoops on the straight aways. My problem may be from my new found speed but what can I do to tame it down for more control through the corners? If I can get it just right I can make it through with just a little over steer but most of the time there when there is traffic in the turns and I can't get it set up right I go sideways and usually to the infield or the pipes.So my question is this what way should i set my toe in, shock rate caster and camber? I am running Intgey piggyback shocks and RPM arms wide maxx talon wheels with pin spike Panther tires with extra firm foam. Any suggestions ??? :shrug:

First thing I'd do is toe in the rear tires a tad.. check for too much toe out in the front also. Do the front grip too much or does the rear end just get too loose?

Lessen , I htink the front end grabs too much thus causing the over steer

What kind of tires are you using? I got a set of Maxx Mulcher tires for mine, and under certain track conditions I put the stock tires on the front.

I'd try less caster next. I think stock is 7 degrees, you can either go 10 or 4... you might wanna try 4

oops, just realized your runnin RPM a-arms. you can't adjust your caster, that sucks, I realized that when I got my RPMs, I was a tad disappointed... but anywho...um. I would still toe in the rears a little. Damn, it could take a lot of different tuning options to fix your issue. I'm almost positive caster would fix it. Well, there's a lot of stuff you could do with springs and yadda yadda but I think if you toe in the rears enough you'll lose the oversteer, you'll have to change the way you enter the corners though because it won't react to steering input as well... basically it won't turn as easily

Oh! maybe try a medium foam in the fronts also, just a thought
