Xray NT1 2014 Specs
#137
Thanks for the info.
Are the capricorn pullies a perfect fit or do I need to modify something for them to fit?
Do you know if the size of the pulley are exactly the same? should I look at the pulleys for the co2/3 kit?
#138
no need to modify anything to put pulleys capricorn, just make sure when you buy them with the same number of teeth.
#140
Is there any really noticeable difference when running the monoblock engine mount and the brass motor mount?
I drove my (new to me 13) for the first time this past sunday just to get a feel for it. My last xray was a 2012 and ran a 747 this past season. I have absolutely no bad things to say about the 747, but xray just is a better fit for my driving.

Need some setup help guru's!
I am need of some setup advice...
My brother and I are both running the Xray NT1 2014 at England Park in Brisbane. This last meet in particular the grip was higher and we both had a few issues. The club has recently been sugar coating the track, but it is still quite bumpy. We normally run 37 shore front and rear trued to 60/62mm. We both had some traction roll on two particular corners that have a little more lean on the car.
Setup:
standard 2014 shock oil, pistons and springs. We are running inside hole on the shock tower with no rear sway bar.
Am wondering if we need to add the sway bar now or try a harder shore foam tyre front and rear or drop ride height?
Look forward to your thoughts and feedback.
Thanks
Andrew

If the track is in hight traction condition I would make the car harder. For example, 1 or 2 hole in front (600), 2 in the rear (700). xray pinks all around. I would also suggest to put sway bar in the rear. You can begin with the standard one. Tyre shore hardness front 37/ 40 rear.

Thank you, I think the new shocks on the 2014 have a 3 hole piston front and rear with a 1.1mm hole. I think you get pistons with 1mm and 1.2mm holes in a 2 hole and 3 hole piston as well. Would you think changing to 2 hole piston in the front and going to thicker rear shock oil would be the go?
Thanks

Personally I would start by going to harder tyres and reducing the amount of roll while cornering, starting with stiffer sway bars and raising roll centres. Increasing the damping of the shocks will give you a bunch of other issues given the state of the track at the moment.

Thanks, I have tried 37fronts/40rears and balance just wasn't right, so will try some other options. It has only been this last meet that i have had issues and I would say it was from the extra entries in IC meet from the weekend before.

I had a traction rolling issue once, I talked to Mike Swagger and he suggested less caster(move upper arms forward). I haven't had anymore traction rolling issues and have been running my fastest times since making the change.
You could also just ca glue the front side walls, quick easy fix that's worked for me in the past...

Thanks, I would have thought the CA glue on the sidewall would have been more to stop chunking the tire?

Less caster works great, you can also raise the upper front arms, turn down dual rate a few notches wider track width and most importantly, ride height
