The long front camber links are referred to as the JR links.

2Bad...
read my post a couple times..
Basically, what I equate it to is like moving your shocks further out on the arm.. think of it like this..., your moving your shocks closer to the center of the car. Its a tuning option, that for me.. work 10000's times more that i would have immagined.
Think of it like this... it allows the weight to transfer F/B and B/F quicker. without making the car un-drive-able...Somthing, I felt needed improvement. This.. for me anyway.. did the trick.
Will it work on asphalt? Dunno... all I know is that my car was the best it has been.
Pookyt= yah, i wanted to give you a sneak peek when i ordered..... but didnt know if I was "allowed" to share this as it obviously is a deviation from the original design..

By tomorrow night you guys will have some feedback on how the different shock position works on asphault. It would seem like it should give more rear traction since you are moving the weight off the back of the car, hopefully there wont be too much more and my current settings continue to work.

Take a look at this avitar link, I thought of using it but thought I might get my knuckles wrapped

CAN MANRandy= Cant wait. Cyrul says it gives more traction... and i think I agree.. but at the same time, it made the car have more steering. I think this is due to faster weight transfer front to rear.. Cant wait to hear what you find..

Keith, nice job.
I think part of the reason this helps the car is it gets more weight forward. Most of the cars out now have a rectangle in the middle of the car where all the weight is concentrated. I think this goes toward that sort of setup. It may also help to reduce any "porpoise" effect the car may have from having the weight stretched over the length of the car.

Good Luck with it! Plus I need to know if I should but more Dremel discs and revamp production on rear pairs only! Later.Brant

Last night, with the Chicky #3 setup and the longer front camber links, my JRX-S was absolutely glued to the carpet track at Stockton. Unbelievable transformation to the point that it was too glued for stock motor racing. Had lots of steering with a stuck rear end. That's a pleasant change.
Car with Jaco 2 Stage foams likes larger sized tires being in the 58-60 cm range. And "overdrive" sizing of tires appears to be very promising for the JRX-S.

If you read above...What should I do to free the rear end up?
