I just got back from the track and i tested my rear inserts that lowered the rear hinge pins 1mm. The track hasnt been prepped or watered so it was extremely blown out and rutted real bad. I was nervous as all the cars out there were looping and hitting the pipes like mad. I threw my car down and immediately noticed that it felt great! It was just a hair loose on power so i dropped my center diff oil to 5k from 7 and the car was stuck. I could feel that the track was not tight but the car was very easy to drive on the track. I could drive it deep into the corners and jump back on throttle and not lose the rear. This is definately a change that was a big improvement. Last thing i am going to try is 5k in the front. This will make it 5-5-5 in all 3 diffs.

I made rear inserts that are 1mm offset to the bottom and in the front of the rear transmission mount, I used the low hole insert that comes with the car that is offset 1mm. This allowed me to keep 2 degrees of antisquat and have a lower rear roll center. It is made for running 4 degrees of rear toe. Here is a pic of the solid model of the insert I made.

The Delrin should hold up better than the nylon also.

If any of you guys want a set of the low roll center inserts, Let me know. I am going to be running some off this week. I will be selling them for $15.00 per pair shipped in the US. I can reduce the cost for multiple sets being that they will all ship together. Outside of the US will have additional shipping costs.

With a non-vented cap, the air trapped between the bladder and the shock cap is compressed during operation. This makes the suspension a little more progressive and provides more rebound if desired.
