MF's Last Call! This was MF's last race in the USA before his official retirement after the upcoming World Championships.

hope someone (pooky, craig etc) can help, going to give craigs set up a try and i'm confused by one thing

Its says on the front there is no up travel !! Can someone explain this to me.

By that im reading the up travel limiter set screws (which are attached to the roll bar mounts ) are set once the ride height etc is set so that the suspension is fixed ie no travel at all, effectively locking the front shocks !!

Please advise anyone

Thanks
Andy

What Craig means is that there is no additional shock uptravel once the chassis hits the ground, meaning that tires do not travel up past the chassis. Understand? If not I'll try to explain it better.

Yup!! Just what Andrew said! Push the chassis flat to the surface, and make sure the wheels cannot be pulled up any further. Hope this helps!!

Go UK and the JRXS!!! You guys hang in there and you will surprise a lot of people!!!

Hey Andrew maybe you know, did anyone (regular car) run the front camber mod thing at the reedy / nats, or did they prefer the regular ballcup setup?

Thanks

Ben Aromin in the Masters class had it on his car. Not sure if he ran it the entire weekend though.

No, I was not using the camber link mod. Let me know how the setup works for you.

Also, on my setup sheet it says rear shock tower height was high...that's a mistake. The rear tower was in the low position. Sorry about that(Thanks Haynes for pointing that out)

Just put some of the final finishing touches on 'er tonight. Now I need to mount and paint the body. I can't wait to get back out to the track. I should have never sold the first JRXS I had in my hands.

Just to get a reference number, what is the weight of some of the cars out there? Even with the fans, my car seems on the light side...
