Hey,
I was just wondering what turnbuckles you used with the losi type r cups because the standard HB ones r not long enough?

Also, that sponsoring Mike Haynes would help in saving money ( to make the parts we all need available ) , by not dumping a heap of money to bring Hara and the others out to the U.S.......
This is how I read it anyway ?!

I think he was referring to a lack of spares being available for the general public to buy, not looking to score freebies ..........

Any ideas on keeping the rear from stepping out on rubber asphalt?
I am running the kit setup with both front and rear shocks mounted three holes from middle of shock tower, silver sway bar front and copper at rear.
I removed the rear sway bar which help a little and was also told to remove more droop (to have very little) which did not really help much, actually made it slightly worse!
Am running Sorex 36's.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Mr Lee, you need to post your entire current setup, if anyone is going to be able to give you pointers.

Here's Ty's setup from Paved Nationals you can use as a reference.

Exiting a corner! I really have to back off and wait for the car to run straight before I can apply power otherwise it just slides/spins out.....
My diff is really smoothe and has a very slight amount of slip. Have heard that a tight diff could cause these problems I am having but I don't think it can be the problem here!
Oh am also running an LTCR.
Thanks for the setup sheet San. I did look at that when setting mine up but just decided to go with the shock tower mount settings and leave the rest as standard hence I mentioned that above.

Thanks very much for the suggestion mojoman! I see that on Ty's setup sheet he also has the 1,5mm shims.
In technical terms how does dropping the inside rear camber link height effect the rear from breaking away?
BTW I am already running the kit 3 degree rear toe block.
