I think I was talking to someone about a rubber tire set up when I was saying use the Black shoe. When on a high bite track use the grey or red As far as spring I use the gold for most applications, I usually have about 2 full threads showing behind the adjustment nut.

He is talking about using the black clutch shoe for rubber tires. It allows the clutch to slip and prevents the tirers from breaking loose. This can also be used to fine tune the clutch for low or hight traction tracks.

Mr Slot, yes you did mention the rubber tires, me bad.

Just another question, is it a good idea to use the longer allen screw instead of using the shorted screw with the 3mm ball for the clutch shoes which was posted before.

I haven't change the 2 speed clutch since 4 or 5 months. Make sure to perform periodic check before race day.

Tigthen SK4x8 until tiny gap appeared. If you tighten the screws until TO233 can't twist left & right, the transition from 1st to 2nd feels smoother. And vice versa.

If you use the longer one you would be better off, I use the short and have never had any problems.
I use the Serpent assembly trick, Screw the grub screw in from the other side, Stick your wrench in through the hole and unscrew the grub from the bottom side like you are taking it out instead of putting it in. That way the screw will never back out all the way by itself.

When would you like to have some? Is there any tolerance to the 26mm width, like can it be 26.30? I ask that because on our current design the rubber overhangs the wheel on the inside of the tire. I can make them on 26mm 5 spoke wheels. If there is no tolerance I will have to narrow the wheel some.

so if i am racing on a track with low traction i dont want alot of roll because it will cause more sliding. so i should use the C block or B versus the A?

rocca30

try the C block, should help

Don't worry so much about the roll factor, the C block will give more traction.

Get this, My wife and I raced on a loose concrete track this weekend and her car was everywhere except where the line was, so i gave the prospec some rear toe in, and lowered the rear shock one hole and tested it between heat's. Better but still a little loose. Then I noticed All of the Mugen guy's had there rear sway bar dissconnected! So, being (Monkey see-Monkey do.)I removed our Mugen's rear sway- And wow! it stuck great! Anybody else tried this? I recommend it on concrete and loose-unpreped track's. Just my 2 cent's. C.
