Vintage Yokomo YR4 M2 Type J (w/ 21.5T brushless) at RCHR Open Practice, 08/24/24

Another car which needs more time to develop a setup, but I wanted to try it at least once this season. For this particular run, I had the timing at 40deg and it was a bit slow. Other guys with their 21.5T cars were way quicker, so I went up one tooth on the pinion and increased timing to 55deg. I also tightened the front diff, as in this run the rear was a bit loose on corner exit. After those changes, it was much faster, although I did not record that run. With more time, I can have this more dialed in, but would it be competitive against modern touring car chassis? Probably not in my hands, as I just don't race or even practice on-road enough, but I'd like to think it wouldn't be far off. Very pleasant car to drive otherwise, as it is smooth and super, super quiet.
