2. Struggling for rear traction... Though more toe has improved this along with weight!

3. I see there is a LOT of play in the front arm inner mounts as the inserts move in the Ali mount... Anyone finding this a problem? I added 1.5mm spacer in front before the brace but now everything has slop! I see the team guys at the Worlds had a different front brace that clamped around the chassis.

Thanks,

Dave

I ran the stock set up for 10 laps and instantly switched to a Lee Martins setup (as close as I could get it without upgraded parts). I would go with a non stock setup route.

after 2 days of running my car had tons of drag. I took out the diffs and my front one was feeling still new. I swapped out the bevel gears for some used ones and it was a night and day difference.

might also run your belts as loose as possible.
