How would you describe your track conditions?

one thing about the M2C adjustment blocks, really give it an eyeball look and confirm that what you are seeing makes sense, I don't think the instructions are completely correct as when trying the .75 adjustments, the toe settings didn't look right in comparison to what they said to do.

So make sure what you are seeing "looks" right.
Track Conditions
40 degrees cold, wet, sticky, hard and as the day progresses the top layer will get softer. I'm going to run some barcodes that are bald in the middle but have treads on edges still since the track is so sticky right now. I will also be dropping my ride height to 21mm

I was running mainfields newest set up except
diff fluid 7000 front 5000 rear
yellow shocks in front blue front shocks on the rear
2.5mm washers front shock tower ball stud outer hole
exotek rear hubs 6mm washers ballstud in center hole
7mm washers on shock tower 12mm ball stud inner hole
Otherwise ride and height and everything else are the same.

I have no reference or enough experience to know if my toe blocks look to be properly placed sorry.

The tracks I run on are smooth hard packed clay (high bite) so my tire of choice is AKA wishbones (clay) or Rebars (clay). The 8mm mod for the rear camber link works "but" I went down to 4mm and found it to corner alot better, i'm going to try 6mm though.

The thing you have to remember is all the info on here is just a starting point, you have to find a set-up that works for you. That is what i've been doing for the last 2 weeks.

Will switch back to the stock 3.2 block in a couple races just to see if it fixes or alleviates some of my issues.
