I always run the sensor lead with the phase cables to the motor and have never had an issue. I prefer to do this as I have had a couple of sensor wires damaged when under lipo weights have moved etc.

Which setup are you using?

The RHR one most definitely doesn't lack steering! I had to go back to LP cut staggers at the national as it was too aggressive on the fusions with an insert in!

Seems that a lot of the LD3 guys don't run a front ARB, some of the B6 guys don't run a front bar in certain circumstances too. B7 seems to be better with the front bar in all circumstances thus far.
