Just little tweaks to make it easier/better.

Pedro - The optional camber plate is to change the lenght of the camber link. The 1.25mm has in between holes (instead of 2.5mm between holes) from the stock camber plates plus a really long position that I've really liked on the front end of my car....
Josh (or any other cool dude out there), care to enlighten on how a longer or shorter camber link affects handling?

it feels that a longer link is smoother in turns but cant allow the car to turn faster or harder for me....

and also, can explain how best i can use the various otion wings and upper decks to tune the car's handling? softer wings should give more grip and side bite and harder upper decks should give less grip overall but gain steering and response?
