I guess the advantages of longer links have outweighed the friction issues at the inner joint. I remember wtcc once tested out longer vs. shorter links, with a clear favourite the longer ones.

Glad to hear it works.

If you are using the xray steering arms another thing that occurs to me is that using the outer holes on the hubs must increase the ackerman a lot.

The xray in standard form already has a lot of ackerman. On my x4f I used to run as many spacers as I could on the steering rack in order to reduce it.

I get, that it should induce some unwanted forces into the steering and front suspension, but do not notice anything on track or any influence on drivetrain or steering action. I suppose the angles are not great enough on the doublejointcardan to have a noticeable effect.

That's really interesting that you don't notice much of a difference. I've testing moving the axle joint away from the KP axis on 8th scale buggies and just 1mm (in or out) causes a dramatic difference in the cars handling. The differences are felt most during heavy braking and heavy acceleration.

Saw that the car was run at ETS Wiener Arena Nova. Any feedback?
