I've heard of Brandon but don't think I've met ya. Hope to see you there. Putting the names with the faces is sometimes as much fun as the racing.

I'd call customer service again, they are typically very quick.

use the large skinny party balloons for club racing, and nothing at big races....the oil is cheap, and while your waiting around you can redo your shocks...haha

Believe it or not, after a while the boots stopped riding up. It doesn't really matter if they do, it's not the bottom you need to worry about, it's the top.

Can anyone report on the new new out drives - The ones AE is sending out as replacements. How long are they lasting.

Got a question regarding low b plate and original b plate.

to reduce some of the steering, some people are using the original b plate which essentially reduces the angle of the arms.

i'm thinking of leaving the low b plate on and going from 2 up on the a plate to 2 down on the a plate which is doing the same thing.

anyone tried this. what do u think.

Changing a plate bushings changes dive angle of arms more angle less dive less angle more dive so 2 down will probably give u more steering coming in as the car front end will dive harder i.to corner
Std b plate moves the whole arm up loweri.g the roll center
