I was running stock 8 hole 1.2 f/r and Ended up with a 5 hole 1.5 piston 700f/ 550r and Mugen springs 9.0f/ 10.5r.
The team guys pointed me in his direction and it helped a lot. After talking to the team guys I actually changed my entire setup before my 2nd run it took 45 mins and my buddy helped me but we got it done. I'll get a setup sheet posted. Thicker sway bars f/r, 2mm shim out on the rear hub to raise the rear camber link, rear camber link all the war down. It was my fastest qual and my fastest lap, I had to tone it down it was a bit aggressive for me.

Which problems did you have on that track and how did you solve them?
Thx.

The Mugen springs feel stiffer than the xray. When I took the carbon rear tower off and put the alum tower on the difference is shock mounting usually lowers the rear ride height by a good 5mm. But with the Mugen springs the ride height stayed the same with the rear tower change. I will get my final setup posted, but it's 90% Kurt Kellum

When did Maifield start running Orion? Interesting to see him do well with them when others have had trouble.. Does he run theh .22 in truggy?
#313
Maybe doing well with them requires a driver who knows how to drive the equipment they are using. but long term will tell more...

My car was unsettled and very unhappy. I went to the team guys for help and that's what they changed. After the new setup my car was drive able again. I don't really have a why just the team guys had me try it and I was willing. I do know that it worked.
