I'm glad you decided to join RCNT.
Welcome Buddha!!
You will find a lot of good people on this site that will help you as much as they can.
Very helpfull smart bunch.
As for the set up, go with the stock springs on that car for our lot!!!!
The CRC track magnets will also help with traction.
Also, see if you can get the front blade kit (sway).
Anyone else can chime in and help a very good friend of mine.

Congrats on your decision to switching to nitro. I did the same about 3 years ago after racing electric for 3 years. Just afew pointers here for you. If your seriously going to race nitro sedan, invest in getting a tire truer. Pretty much any truer will do just as long you true your foams down from stock. Learn about calibrating / tuning your nitro engine. This was the hardest thing for me to do in the beginning, but I'm sure with practice and experience, you should be able to tune your nitro engine quite quickly. Buy a temp gun as well cause you want to make sure that you monitor the temperature on your motors. As for set-up, use the set-up that Mark Parvidas used on www.rc10.com. That's a good starting point to get your NTC3 dialed in. Goodluck.
