Good question, I took it to be Rally Car but after reading the post again I'm not so sure. My cousin was into Radio Controlled racing cars (petrol) many years back but I never took to much notice to their detail. Fun to drive though.

Ben,
 
It depends on the car i.e. IRS etc? On a 1600 most of the good handling dirt versions have slightly softer springs in the rear. When you look at the poundage rates on a 1600 allow for the spring to corner ratio on the rears which as around .26:1 and on the front with stock struts the rate is 1:1. i.e. 200# front springs are the same as ~800# rear springs. On a 1600 RC a good starting rate is 175# front and 600# rear.
 
regards
Terry

bit of a strange question. my brother has sent me his RC car to rebuild for him. im just setting up all the suspension at the moment. just wondering, with a normal car setup, are the rear springs stiffer than the front, or is it the other way round??
