I am very interested in picking one of these up. It looks sweet.

Max, you are running Pink/Pink in 17.5? I assume this is club racing on a lower bite track?

Max thanks for the info, can you clarify the stock length upper arm setting - the kit calls for the 1.5mm upper arm spacer and a 4mm gap between the upper arm and upper arm eyelet. I'm not sure what that equates to in camber but do you keep those same measurements or do you readjust the upper arm turnbuckle to keep camber at a specific measurement (when running the upper arm spacer or not)?
Also - what do you run for toe? Same for stock and mod? For toe I try to run as close to zero as I can get |
For lubing the kingpins and gooping the tubes, I have always used Shurlube. Anyone know how the colors would be classified by weight?
