Bando racers please ask for help!

I have been working on and eating up bando's for a number of years. I always see dads or crew members struggling at the track. Please post questions on here and I will do my best to explain or help out.

Hi Matt,
We haven't had too many Bandolero questions in awhile. Quite a few of the Bando kids have moved up to Legends.
The most common questions that I get are asking for specific setups for tracks and gearing.
It is hard to find Bandolero information. We do have a bit in old threads.
Hopefully your offer to help will generate some new questions.
Thank You for your offer to help!

Steve,
I have been getting several calls from parents since I have posted my bando for sale. I don't have a problem helping teams so I figured I would post it so everybody can ask. To all the new racers the only stupid question is a question not asked, we all started with no clue so please ask before getting frustrated or doing the wrong thing.

Hi Matt,
We race Bando's up at New Hampshire Motor Speedway...It is a 1/4 mile kind of egg shaped track...turns 1/2 very tight...3/4 much more open but both turns have transitions...tough track to get a handle on...Im wondering your theory on the big front end splits...I always have trouble with getting the car through wheel base tech when trying to use them....I have a very small driver, 50 lbs, so I have to use LOTS of lead...I have trouble getting the car loosened up/roll through the corners. The car seems to want to skid through 1/2...I actually went down with RR spring to get more mechanical roll.. doesn't carry LF tire, rolls better through corner and I don't see RF tire getting hot. It doesn't technically make sense....but it seems works better.
Thoughts???

Please share with me the setup your currently running. Springs, tire pressure, ride heights. I have a feeling the car has to much chassis tilt on the frontend which will cause it to be inconsistent with a non moving "suspension" front end.
