Paul, what's the advantage of the different diff oils? I seen where you ran 500 weight in Texas and most everyone I talk to is running 1000 or 2000. I did some testing with 2000 and the car had tons of on power steering, it would drive very good and I could pit it anywhere I needed. I then changed to 1000 and the on power steering went away but my lap times picked up?
Thanks,
JG

hey paul
what kind of difference is felt when different shock mounting positions are used in the suspension arms. as in the 2 hole positions vs the 1 hole.
thanks again

Always!. Thanks, you as well!!
Hi. The difference is shock leverage. the stock one hole arms are in the center, the two hole arms have one hole inside and one hole outside of the stock one hole arms. the outside hole will be the stiffest because it will use more of the shock's travel. On the track it just drives stiffer with the outside holes (less roll). Sometimes i will run the 2hole outside arms in the front and the one hole arms in the rear, this will keep the front end up and make the car drive more responsive.
Thanks!
Thanks!

Hi Ali. Im well!, hope all is good with you also!
The body height depends on the tech rule, i will run it as low as possible, and if their is no tech i will lower it untill i see the tires rubbing a little bit in the front wheel wells then i will raise it 1mm.
I think that you are fine with stock screws, TI or aluminum screws in the front of the car could give you a hair more steering but i never really worry about it. a stock car now days is normally under weight so i dont think it is a huge deal to have light screws.
I still use 20--35% steering expo but i no longer use that much throttle expo. the power seems more smooth with the recent speedo se ups. normally i use 10-20% throttle expo in modified.
Thanks
Hey Tilly, was a great race. Ill look im my basement for those TBar parts. Im sure that we can find someone with what you need. Im sure ill see you guys again soon!
