Just for you Mr Wayne; The traction was super high. I would not use this set-up normally. Too stiff in the front, but I was tring to make the car transition really fast for the chicanes.
Front
droop 0
stock sway bar
green springs layed down
2 hole piston 1,000 wt oil
car short and 2mm of actual caster or 4mm of clips (same thing)
-1 toe on each side
1.75 left and 1.5 right camber
4 ride height
37 shore 56mm - Twister (non light weight)
198 width
Rear
droop 3
2.3mm sway bar inner position
pink springs 2nd hole from bottom
3 hole piston 900wt oil
car short
+2 toe on each side
3.25 left camber and 2.75 right camber
5 ride height
camber link inner bottom on tower and inner on hub with 1mm shim
2 back screw out for more flex on the bottum of chassis. The ones that hold the motor mount thingy.
40 shore 58mm Twister (non light weight)
199 width
For normal traction I would use blue front spings, red rear springs and 2.5 rear toe. Also maybe flip the shock pistons front to rear. Just switch the spings, the shocks themselves are the same size.
If I missed anything, just ask. I leave out of town in the morning. Will be back Monday night. Will reply then.
Later,

Weight transfer
Why is it that I never see anyone tweak their cars with fuel in the tank. Is there a technical reason for this practice? With less fuel less I know less weight gets transfered because the weight of the car is reduced but the car's center of gravity never changes neither does the roll axis, so why not tweak the car with the fuel (maybe 1/2 tank) as a compromise. Wouldn't that gave a more neutral handling car throughtout it's entire run?
Just a thought

Just wanted to ask if this new 733 will be better than the MTX4R?
