Just ordered a Goblin womp chassis and was wondering what building tips I should use to set up my car. Love running these cars and a challenge to get it right!
R-Geo Goblin chassis building tips?

Flat and axles are level.

Bracing the motor mount and axle uprights, if rules allow it, helps. Stick on lead weight is good!

Don't forget driver practice. Driver plays a much bigger role in womps than in flexis. The womp style chassis is less forgiving to the irregularities of each lap and lane during a race. On the up side, you have chosen to start with one of the better chassis currently on the market. Good luck and happy racing.

Right out of the bag, the Goblin is hard to beat.It's basically a smarter Riggen. In the AWRA, racers prefer the Goblin SS over the brass, but both are excellent. The Goblin has made an awful lot of podium appearances since its release. The SS has become my go-to chassis. Steve Adkins for AWRA
