viking DA Shocks and slicks
viking DA Shocks and slicks I know my suspension will have to be set up different since im going from radials to slicks. What kind of tips are there for changing my set up? I'll be spraying off the line off of footbrake. Any tips or help would be greatly appreciated.

With slicks you can get away with just a SA rear shock. Radials need a DA to hold the hit on the compression. With slicks just make sure the rebound/extension is set at halfway or at least 1 click higher (depending on track surface).
For the front I'd go maybe 1 or 2 clicks from full loose. The instant torque from the spray will definitely help but you don't want it to rise too quickly and the extension runs out and the nose comes down (the infamous hook and spin).
Tire pressure will be lower with the slicks. Shorter burnout too.
