| Characteristics:
Very small; light and narrow; long wheelbase relative to its width. CG somewhat high relative to its width, causing the chassis to tend to roll more than most of the others. This can make it more prone to bottoming its suspension. Weight bias more to front than the other cars. Long wheelbase makes it stable and very progressive if set up properly.
Light weight and low aerodynamic drag make it the fastest Advanced and Basic Trainer. Repco Grand Prix engine is down on power to the other cars but has a very broad torque band.
EASY RIDE setup hints: 
Tires 20 psi all around
0.5 bump rubbers.
Ride height 3.75
Toe-in +0.025 front, 0.100 to 0.200 rear
Camber -0,5 front, -0.25 rear
Diff.: 85/30 ramp angles, 4 clutches
Steering 15:1
Wheel rate 80 front, 110 rear
Dampers 2 bump, 3 rebound front; 3 bump, 3 rebound rear. Sometimes I use 2 on bump at the rear to make the car less "pointy" in response to throttle applications and bumps
Anti-roll bars around 160 front, 140 rear
Front brake bias 56%
Tall lower gears to take advantage of torque, concentrating use of available power nearer the top speed
