Not sure.. I have not played with the pro-squat - anti-squat that much..

The best thing i would say to do is to try it all different ways..

Found out the guy pulled the trigger on one of the host's and the gun jammed.. Wow.. He had them all lined up in the resturant like the movies ... He got away before the cops got there :-(

But atleast everyone came out ok..

Hope they get this guy sometime...

I use it for foam tires...

But you could try it with rubbers...

I am not sure how it would work..

Barry,
I messed around with the rear antisquat on my TC3 when I ran it on rubber tires and really didnt feel a difference good bad or otherwise. The only advantage I got was running less toe in the rear to loosen up the car with the f block in the rear. Now Im switching over to foams and I think its going to make a bigger difference now as it seems everyone is messing with it lately but nobody seems to be able to explain it very well. Can you describe the feel you get from the different settings. Like how it feels at 0 and however else you try it. And what you use it for. As in where it affects the setup.

Thanks,
Speedie

Its going to be an easier race than last year as most of the fast Euro guys will be at the EuroChamps Warm Up on the same weekend.

Hugo, I think BB has been really swamped lately. I'll help a little on the inserts-

We always started with HPI green inserts on Sorex tires. Obviously the amount of traction, temperature and class (mod or stock) are all factors in insert selection but the HPI green fits the tire well, and is a great starting point for tuning, especially with the Yokomo Precision wheels.

Thanks BigDog,

Which inserts do you use if you have too much grip with the HPI green, and if you don't have enough grip with the HPI green?

Regards,

Hugo
