I see that K-Fatory has brought out rear blocks to give more outside toe-in. Is it possible to get different rear toe-in hing pin holders to get more inbound toe-in.

The reason I ask is because I currently run 3.5 degrees rear inbound toe-in on my TC5 for carpet racing - maybe the e4 turns in better on the rear and I may not need the extra toe-in??

The E4, have a rear pivot block, with 2 positions 1.5º - 2.5º of toe-in inboard.

But are there any plans to bring out a rear pivot block that give 2.5 - 3.5?

for the tranny, on highgrip carpets i think bigger sidebelt pulleys would be a great option,more teeth more "traction for the belt" less slipper...and in plastic. same for front Solid/onway...

Some diffrent rear hub carriers would be a great option
0,5 and 1,5 degrees would do it. They dont have to be alu, plastic is just fine.

Anybody who knows when the new Alu hub with 1,5 degress is goingto be avalible in the shops? Someone who have a link to a webshop?

NICE driving. You carve those lines like a snowboarder with an avalanche behind them! I would love to have the E4 instead of my TC5 (not because one is better, but because of its style) but without any local help I should not take the risk.

I also watched your indoor movie E4 Yangjae indoor - what sort of surface is that? Is it carpet? If so can you let me know what setup you used there.

Very good driving, Gansei, nice video.
Today, i make a new steering plate, with a revised geometry based in formulas i see in the web, all is perfect, not bump steer,... but in the practice not work properly, i need more calculations,...well, go to the original desing, is best
This is how is see the front of the car, with a HB sway bar.

The car, ready to run weight, without the new spool (-15g), with a new fiber tray for batteries, (handmade only 11g - original alu 23g), with the spool, the total weight is only 1406g, ready to run. Is possible remove more weight, with a lightweight body (-15~20g), here the minimal weight is 1400 (5 cell - BL).
