Hot Bodies Cyclone
How would I go about getting a similar setting using the hpi droop gauge and running a 5mm ride height
do you mean how to get 2 mm droop but with a droop gauge , if yes mine shows 7 on the droop gauge and i get 2mm of droop over ride height . i also run 5mm ride height
ive got 1 question , i run modified on a very smooth track , low grip and medium fast . for the moment i have a 2.5 toe block in front and i was thinking about changing to a 1 or 1.5 toe block to have more corner speed .
would this be a good idea
thank you

Going from the 2.5 block to anything less will give the car better turn in and the car will carve the turns better. I would only do this if the car is pushing on corner entry and middle. If the track is low bite make sure that your rear end is locked in when making the changes in the front. I have played with 1.0 to 2.5 in the front and lately I have settle for 1.0 up front. Try the 1.5 first and see what you think. That way you have two choices you could make if you want to increase or decrease sweep in the front. Good luck and it's always fun testing.
Where does everyone get there parts for the cyclone in the US from? I can see anywhere on line that has a lot. Thanks!

what do you mean by "rear end locked".
I also tried 5mm over ride height rear and 8mm over ride height front and i like it , would you recomend it ?

Well... I wouldn't be surprised it will be late September by the time it gets to yoru local shop. They'll be at Hot Bodies early sept... but then it is usually shipped to a distributor, then the local shop.

Rear end locked is my way of saying to make sure the rear isn't loose or fish tailing in the corners due to lack of traction. I had to guess what to do in the low traction conditions that you stated. When you say your car pushes...is that on power or off power? If the 8mm works for you...don't worry about what I like. You go set TQ I may try that myself just to see how it feels. How did the car feel with the droop that way?
