We did some testing of the new bodies at NORCAR.
First up was a WGT chassis with 13.5 and foams (spec). I reminded everyone that this was just the original WGT with a different body. It was...

I am thinking of just starting a new thread on WGT-R and get the new list on it and repost the rules.
What do you guys think?

How do you have you battery? The CRC car likes more weight forward. I am inline and forward. My rear roll center is as low as it goes (AR conversion). I personally lap quicker with a x-ray gear diff...

I have it but that was made (a few years ago) so that the Gravity brand of pre-mounts could be run and make 190. I always try and be 190 at the front especially with the higher grip. I do work with...

Not that I know of. The arms and knuckles were completely different on that car.
All of the parts that I have are for the hinge pin, in and out style of cars.
The Ghost 18 has the aluminum chassis.

Another good question is why that shimming. I race the Cero Ultra on carpet in VTA and the FWD too. Both cars have "Zero" shims under those pivots. Kit is 2mm and a mistake in the manual 6mm screw....

Where I haven't had it happen I have seen the issue. 5 track days and a two piece tire. Rear is the most prevalent. This isn't just a WGTR problem either, the F1 tire can do the same.
