Congrats EA and AE! It seems like more companies are gearing up their "stock" teams to challenge XRay and Corally.

Well I spent most of the day yesterday at the track. I got the car where it was rotating very good but still very stuck and pretty easy to drive. It was better with 28mm tires over the 26mm's but I think this may be our track more than anything as everyone else says the 28's are better too.

I basically got the car where it was pretty fast and easy to drive then started fine tuning some different things (diff heights, ackerman, shock pistons, etc) to get a good feel for what it did for this car....In the end I think I got it very good and feel good going to the Stock Invite race next week at the Gate.

Is there an advantage having on side of the body higher than the other in the rear?

No. But you can't get the real impression until you hold the parts in your hands. They look better in person than any photo can demonstrate.
