If you push the rear down flat then there's a 2mm gap between the board and the front edge of the chassis.

If I undo the top deck the chassis goes back to being flat.

My belts are pretty loose (10mm deflection on the front belt with small pressure and a bit less on the rear belt). I've tried loosening all the bukheads and re torquing them in several differnt orders and normally nip them up before I go around again to tighten. It seems like the upper deck is too short.....

The car is very good, and as I dial in the setup I'm going faster and faster (got FTD club racing yesterday) but I'd like to figure out if there's something up with my kit or if they're all like this.... Anyone else?

Cheers,
Chris.

If you have tried everything I would say take your bulkheads off and see that they are flat. If not then call Micheal at Top and he will get you sorted out.
