Looking for info on oem LCG chassis setup for dirt offroad track
Miles, So Dialed's RC setup AI
For a Traxxas Slash 2WD with the OEM LCG conversion, the LCG chassis is a sensible dirt-racing starting point, especially on a high-grip clay track. There isn’t a single verified Traxxas factory “dirt LCG” setup, so treat these as car-specific starting settings reported by other racers, not an official factory recipe.
- Chassis: Low CG. The kit setup lists High CG as standard, while racers choose Low CG on high-grip clay.
- Shocks: Keep the rear shocks at the B, mid-in arm hole. Use the long front and XX-long rear shock bodies. For clay, reported oil is 50 wt front and 70 wt rear, with 2-hole pistons front and rear.
- Springs and tires: The reported clay setup uses the progressive black front spring, Pro-Line Electron front tires, and Positron rear tires.
- Alignment: Start near -0.5° front toe and -2° rear camber on high-grip clay.
The dirt ride-height number isn’t specified in the available Slash data. Set it so the chassis clears the surface without sitting excessively high; if the track is loose or bumpy rather than clay, tell me which, since the tire and shock settings should change.
