we use'em all the time........
Progressive Engineering (comercial Non-Retail)
made my first early ones from Modified OnRoad tweek boards
with the little levels in them.......
like on road from side to side a little can go along way...
maybe for some it may not make much of a difference?
maybe it might...??
for me at my "Level" it helped where all my laps at say a given track
was a 32.5 , to see if my car was "Tweeked" from a hard landing?
or a collar in some way "Loosened Up"
so setting the Tweek at the Shocks ensured i was not just "Blanaced"
at all 4 ends but ensured my droop setitngs were consistant.......
so went from a 32.5 to 31.2
may not seem like much...??? but could mean the A or the D mains.
fanboyz will always argure this...that is without doubt......
but, manytimes in this hobby if one has it in there "Head"
this will work then this will eliminate one less thing they will
"Think About"........
i remember when 99% of the R/C racers thought using a set up station
was a "Joke" because they ran off road, and Jumped and got tossed around
in general.....
yea, ok maybe if your having fun and do not mind i can understand....
but if your driving for your own Personal "Perfection" no matter how
it may or can be Acheived? then it was a "Useful Tool"
as in any other tool..........
and judging by most seeing the Back of my Buggies or Truggies, i think it helped....
but i know for "Me" if Nailing down a camber-toe or anyother setting
including a Chassis tweek can get me that extra .2 tenths?
yea it's worth it.......
been in "Events" where from the C main to the A main was Speroated
by "LESS than a Second" between 30 drivers !!! thats close...
well if one wanted to make one like we did a few years ago?
have a Machine shop make the bars Similar to this one from MIP
http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...tion-1-10-1-12
so what they did is made the bars for the tires "Wide Enough"
for my Truggies and Buggies, then made the bar running the Length
of the cars long enough to Acomidate a Buggy or a Truggy......
so now i can get within a 3/4 ounce of tweek on my cars....
but even less of a chore, is slowly lifting the rear or front
"Cenetered" and watch which tire lifts up first.....
sometimes be suprised.....!!!!
