I've noticed on mine the left to right front being off as well...I just put a rear axle shim under the low side on both screws and it worked just fine. Also check the pre-load on the springs...you might have more droop on one side then the other.

By the number of shims on the front end. To check for a difference left to right lift one side axle and see if there is a gap between the lower arm and the steering block. If there is you'll have droop so you want to make sure both sides have the same gap.

Hey Guys,
I got to run the car today on the rug and it was very impressive. The traction was low so i went back to the standard flex plate mounting(short) to gain initial steering. Its nice to be able to go back and forth like that. The car instantly stood out. I wound up getting 2nd in a very close field of fast drivers. I was real happy with that. Leon was super fast and would have won the main if his electronics didnt shut down. He was the fastest car on the track. Im glad he was running the DB12RR also.
I TQ'ed and won the World GT class. The DB10R was an absolute missile. I ran the same set of tires all day(Lilac spec tires) With almost no wear.

my car was absolutely awesome!! to say the least. I put it into complete cruise control with three minutes left in the race only to smoke a speed control with 25 seconds left to go DOH! crap happens though. however, I think a BMI wrapped up the FCC championship

Yeah I don't think the lowered pod plates come with it...they really are not needed but are nice to have. If you are not yet running BL either you will be fine with the stock DB12R too...well either way you'll be fine with the stock DB12R...the RR just refines the design a bit.
