Originally posted by InitialD You measure droop with a droop gauge.:nod: :D Droop and ride height are two different things. You could also use a caliper if you want but you need to understand how droop is measured in the first place. This is what the Serpent 710 setup book has got to say about droop or what they also call downstops... Downstops limit how far the suspension arms travel downward, which determines how far upwards the chassis rises. This affects the car’s handling, as it directly impacts the weight transfer of the chassis. The effect may change with the type of track and/or amount of grip available. In general, more suspension travel (lower downstop value) makes the car more responsive but less stable; it is also typically better on a bumpy track or on a track with slow corners. Less suspension travel (higher downstop value) makes the car more stable; it is typically better on a smooth track. Reduced downstops (higher downstop value) ?decreases upward chassis travel ?car more stable under braking ?better on smooth tracks Increased downstops (lower downstop value) ?increases upward chassis travel ?car more responsive but less stable ?better on bumpy tracks IMPORTANT! Adjust the downstops so the left and right sides are equal. |

I thought I remembered it being the border. :lol: Anyway, here's wishing you "twin" happiness with the 710 ! :lol: Or come in a bigger package instead in the form the 950R...:sneaky: :lol: Have you noticed that there a quite a few Mazda bodyshells being used in the winternats?

Hopefully, I can get to try the Mazda 6 body this weekend.:sneaky: :D http://www.winternats.com/gallery/al...al24.sized.jpg Michael Salven http://www.winternats.com/gallery/al...al29.sized.jpg Ralph Burch |
The Mazda has a pretty big front spolier - that should help to get rid of any understeer
