stock motor mount
In order to use bigger spur gears, I was thinking of lifting the stock motor mount by putting 2mm washer/spacers between the chassis and the bottom of the stock motor mount. This will also raise the motor, will there be any concern with affecting the handling because of the motor lifted by 2mm?
but FF &FR shim more will slower in second turn !
rolling more so need more time to return to std for next turn rolling .

The only bad thing with you being a team driver is that you are gonna catch my post count by the end of the year being so helpful....
We got these cars rocking out here bro. Scotty's set up is dialed. All we want to do now is test the new proptoform body and see how it runs on the car. I have been going back and forth with the regular mazda 6 and the AP stratus. The DNA 2 was my body of choice last year but it turns in way too hard with our current set up. I think I'm only going to run 13.5 for the rest of the year. Mod is hit or mis around here.

Korey and Guys
can you do me a favour and measure on a setup station how many degrees total steering travel on each lock you run on the cyclone.
I have a feeling that why my car pulls rear end round due to running to much lock.

About the rear end sliding around....when is it doing it: corner entry, corner exit, mid corner?
What surface are you running, and what set-up do you have?

As you acclerate out of the corner.

OK my set up is :
108 spur and 35 pinion
2mm spacer between the upper bulkhead and the inner pivot for front
and 2mm between upper bulkhead and inner pivot for rear
5mm front ride height
5.5mm rear ride height
4mm before the tyre lift from the ground (droop i think)for front
3mm before the tyre lift from the ground (droop i think) for rear
standart suspension 3 holes ,1.1mm each ,40w oil standart spring silver rear gold front
camber 1.5 all around
castor 4
wheelbase is standart
FF 1.5 , FR 2
RF 1.5 , RR 1.5
0.75toe angle front
and standart toe angle rear
4mm ackermann
and i think thats it
and my probleme is that :when i enter the corner , i have to break quite hard to turn without the rear end spinning so it means i loose time . So what i would like to do is to corner faster without the rear end spinning .
thank in advance

I'm one of those guys that just sets the steering up to lock, but never actually turn the wheel all the way. So for you I'd do what yyhayyim said to do. That should be a good overall starting point.

At the track now and have been chasing problems with my car all day. The problem that I am having now is at any large amount of steering angle the steering freaks out like the cvd's are binding in the spool or something. I am running a 3racing spool ground out to fit the wce cvds
