:: Tuning Tips
Painting:
Your Kit comes with a clear polycarbonate body. You will need to prep the body before you can paint it.
Wash the INSIDE thoroughly with warm water and liquid detergent (do not use any detergents with scents or added
hand lotion ingredients!). Dry the body using a clean, soft, lint-free cloth. Use the supplied window masks to cover the
windows from the INSIDE of the body (RC cars get painted on the inside). Using high quality masking tape, apply tape
to the inside of the body to create a design. Spray (use either rattle can or airbrush) the paint on the inside of the body
(preferably dark colors first, lighter colors last). NOTE: ONLY use paint that is recommended for polycarbonate
plastics. If you do not, you can destroy the body! After the paint has completely dried (usually after 24 hours), cut the
body along the trim lines. Make sure to drill or use a body reamer to make the holes for the antenna if needed! Use hook
and loop tape to secure the body to the side rails of the vehicle.

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. If the result of your adjustment is a faster lap, mark the change on the included setup sheet (make adddtional
copies of the sheet before writing on it). If your adjustment results in a slower lap, revert back to the previous setup and
try another change. When you are satisfied with your vehicle, fill in the setup sheet thoroughly and file it away. Use this
as a guide for future track days or conditions. Periodically check all moving suspension parts. Suspension components
must be kept clean and move freely without binding to prevent poor and/or inconsistent handling.

:: Tuning Tips (cont.)
Motor Gearing:
Proper motor gearing will result in maximum performance and run time while reducing the chance of overheating and
premature motor failure. The gear ratio chart lists recommended starting gear ratios for the most widely used
motor types. Gear ratios will vary depending upon motor brand, wind, and electronic speed control. Consult your
motor and electronic speed control manufacturers for more information.
Team Associated is not responsible for motor damage due to improper gearing.

*75T spur gear (#92294) not included

Set The Gear Mesh:
You should be able to rock the spur gear back and forth in the teeth of the pinion gear without making the pinion gear
move. If the spur gear mesh is tight, then loosen the #31532 screws (p. 19) and move the motor away, then try again.
A gear mesh that is too tight or too loose will reduce power and damage the gear teeth.

Diff Height Adjustment:

The diff height adjustment (p.12) is a good way to tune the car for grip level. On high grip with low ride heights, a higher
diff height will be a good option. On lower grip with higher ride heights, a lower diff height will be better.

Gear Box Type:

Selecting the correct gear box is dependent on the type of track it will be used on. The optional 4-gear standup gear box
is for the lowest grip conditions. This gear box moves the weight towards the rear of the car and also uses the
rotation of the motor to transfer weight to the rear while on-power. The 3-gear standup gear box also moves the
weight towards the rear of the car, but in this configuration, the motor’s rotation helps with on-power steering.
The laydown gear box is used on high grip conditions when on-power steering and stability are most important.
This gear box will change directions the quickest and generate the most steering. Layback is used for most indoor clay
track conditions.

Slipper Clutch:
The assembly instructions give you a base setting for your clutch. Turn the nut on the shaft so that the end of the top
shaft is even with the outside of the nut. At the track, tighten or loosen the nut in 1/8 turn increments until you hear
a faint slipping sound for 1-2 feet on takeoffs. Another popular way to set the clutch is to hold both rear tires firmly in
place and apply short bursts of throttle. If the clutch is properly set, the front tires should lift slightly up off the surface.

Caster:
Caster describes the angle of the caster block as it leans toward the rear of the vehicle. Positive caster means the
kingpin leans rearward at the top. The kit includes three inserts to adjust caster angle at the caster block, 0°, 2.5°, and
+5°. The total caster angle is the sum of the kick-up angle and the caster block angle. Standard total caster angle for
the B6 is 30°, with 25° kick-up and +5° caster block angle.
For less entry steering and more exit steering, try 0° caster block angle.

Front Camber:
Camber describes the angle at which the tire and wheel rides when
looked at from the front. Negative camber means that the tire leans
!
inward at the top. A good starting camber setting is -1°. Positive camber,
where the top of the tire is leaning out, is not recommended. Testing camber
A camber gauge can be used to more accurately set camber. with camber gauge

Rear Camber:
Camber describes the angle at which the tire and wheel rides when looked at from the back. Negative camber means
that the tire leans inward at the top. A good starting camber setting is -1°. Adding a small amount of positive camber,
where the top of the tire is leaning out, will tend to improve straight-line acceleration on loose tracks.
A camber gauge can be used to more accurately set camber.
