I started at 95. I'm up to about 100 now. I'm going to continue going higher rollout with lower timing until it slows down then back up.

That being said, I think 95-105 is probably the range.

US indoor tracks are tight with hard boards. The kit steering arms tend to bend downwards in hits. The Avid arms prevent this and in my experience, nothing else seems to break. There's a reason for...
