Let's say it this way... in the range of the Speedtech spool... Yes, I think it will be around 30$... And I will see how much the anodizing is... Blue is fast...

Cheers

Shookie-
I was at Crystal park yesterday testing some stuff with my lcg. You may want to think about a ride hieght no lower then 5mm. There are some bumps out there. My socal setup seemed to work just fine. They sprayed the track with VHT and there was plenty of grip.

The track is super huge! Get ready for that long straight. The lanes out there are really wide so you can just flow around the track. I used a 19T yesterday out there and I kept feeling like motor kept winding out on the straight too soon!

my LCG has only been ran twice, and from those two runs, i gather that it has more steering than my BD, could it be from the set-up or drive train configuration?

Daniz24 you will regreat converting to the LCG with the SDW...it is limited...Your better off getting a used SD cheap and doign the conversion...the SDW is a limited edition.

Hoghwayman- the LCG has super steering do to the outstanding layout. The BD has good sterring but the LCG has a great low rack.

Yea I was told to gear to the backside of the moon... Like 5.1 so I will start at 5.8 and work down....
I will run 5f & 5.5R ride height....so with VHT than Tire tweak is good YES?
I got a banging setup for the VFS1.....lots o rip....
Thanks for all your help.

Default FRONT SUSPENSION MOUNT

I am in the process of constructing a LCG conversion kit using parts from a CGM donor kit. The instructions say to fit the F1 front suspension mount to the hinge pins and I am wondering if the Aluminium F0 can be used instead. I am of the opinion that the F0 and the F1 only change the Toe out angle. Am I on the correct track?
I am hoping to finish the kit over this weekend. Any setups or advice would be greatly appreciated.

i think the F1 and F0 refers to the kick-up of the hinge pins... the F0 gives no kick-up while the stock F1 gives 1 deg kick-up. i use 0 kick-up always, unless the track is bumpy

that was my same thought......I think it woudl work....very nice...just need a way to order the parts...I think that woudl make the BD the best steering belt car out....

I can not wait to try the LCG Monday....I am doing some testing on motors and cars..the RDX and the LCG...I think the LCG will kill the RDX on the huge track...so I want to prove it is.....gotta have lap times to prove it though...LOL
We will have to see...
I need to get some more throttle time on the LCG...I only have ten runs on it so far so...not sure of its complete potential..LOL
