Wes, use Hara's setup for starters... I would say our track is not low bite anymore since it is covered most of the time.

Traction is increasing.

12th......man you're not allowed to even post

BQ gets noticed but 12th is like kissing your sister. I'll pull over and finish 13th

Man I have too much time on my hands

Also thanks rccartips for confirming this.

for more steering, move the spacers that are on the front suspension arms to the front of the car. that shortens the wheelbase, puts more weight on the nose, and greatly increases the steering. some people dont like it, gives
way to much steering.......

From 'ETS, a photo of the model of Moore.
You can see the MIP front shafts and different spindles steering.

Thanks,

Hey Hiro when are you going to bring the new car out to west coast ?
