Is the first picture in album 1 the new carbon chassis? Is the new carbon chassis as narrow as the new aluminum chassis?

Yes it's a new carbon chassis and it is of the same dimensions as the aluminum one.
79.5 mm wide
2.5 mm thick

Blog updated. I will follow the latest set up submitted to me by Oleg as a standard for carpet with short upper links.

Awesomatix isn't stocking the P13 anymore in favor of the new P13-4. The P13-4 are really good once-
#1 you pre-thread the ends (i just used a normal screw, even of the left threaded sides)
#2 you grease the tie-rods (white or black grease works.. i've also heard people use chap stick)

If you want the P13 you'll have to buy them from Kyosoho-

I thought I read this was a Russian made car, so I'm wondering if they are better priced now with the tumbling ruble? I'd have to buy direct from Russia I'd think.

The P13-4 is what I meant. I had saw them in stock not too long ago but when I went to place my order, they were all out. Going to place a 2nd order sometime soon, but would like to know when they are expected to come in. Thanks!

Someone asked before. The price is based on the euro, not the ruble. Oleg is russian, but the parts are made in europe, england of im not mistaken

Default Need a little help.

I just came from the track and all is good. I have a LITTLE off power a$$ loose. I am trying to work with adjusting the droop so it will transfer less weight to the front of the car but if anyone has a suggestion please let me know. THANKS

Get the OR05S -- they are softer. Use a lot of green slime.

other things that help-
stiffer front springs (smaller B #)
softer rear springs (larger B #)
less negative front camber
more front dampening (larger A #)
less rear dampening (smaller A #)
less rear droop
