Hi,

If I was to run on medium bite carpet track witrh sorex 28, I would start with my SuperStock setup from IIC. I would add maybe half a mm of uptravel and work it from there. This setup is what I usualy run everywhere on carpet.



Hi,

I usualy give my car a little push and then measure ride height. mine usualy has about .5mm difference but never 1.5 ! Maybe you could check your shock oring to make sure nothing is bound up or in the suspention parts see if there is anything sticky ? if not maybe your oil is too thick ?



I am too late already, looks like his car is awesome already



I don,t have a picture right now but I usualy measure a little below the screw on the arm where the arm have a little nub to take that measurement. Also what I do most of the time is set it with uptravel with a ride height gauge and then juste make sure it is even with the ae gauge.




Good to hear the situation has been taken care of ! good luck in your racing.

The rear of the front bulkhead is 2B

So looking at car from it's left side it would look like this (FT. 3A - 2B) (RR. 0B - 2B)

If I'm wrong someone correct me...lol

Here is what the manual says about anti-dive and pro-squat



And the rollcenter differences are as follows:

High
--
3B
2B
1B
0B
3A
2A
1A
0A
--
Low

A little correction:

F: 3A-0B
R: 2B-2B

This is the correct arms position of Rick, he uses anti-dive in front wich is allready explained and also to compensate the reduction of the caster due to the anti-dive he changed to 6º hub caster.

That is just normal tire wear. You may try a little less camber but then it may traction roll

Looks to me like you need a new set of tires.

I'm not getting any response from the 12r5 thread so my question is when you look at the setup sheets on the associated site nobody marks what caster they are using with the 3 choices, so does that mean everybody just uses the standard 10° no matter what?
Also the setup sheets refer to a t plate used, looking at the manual there is no reference to a t plate.
