Default HELP!!!!!! WITH SETUP FOR HYPER 8.5

Hi guys how we all doin?
Just wondering if there is anyone in this big r/c world that could explain and help me with some setup strategys.
Ok here we go

1.what does each individual setup part affects eg.+camber,-camber,rebound stops,diff oils,shock oils and etc.

2.I own a Hyper 8.5 and are looking at racing at a LHS.The track is indoors with jumps,carpeted track, and quite rough,quite tight in 45% of the track (tight corners and tight corners that lead to jumps)What would be a good base setup to start from?
I would greatly appritiate everyones opinions and advice.

Hope im not being too painful by asking this
In advance thankyou all.
Ill keep checking back to this thread every couple of days to see what i can get answered.

That is an amazing link Paradoxmaker. I just spent 45 minutes reading it before work. It is very in depth, and I am for sure adding it to my links. Nice find. =)
