Thanks Joey and Earl! Sounds like I was close with my 3 mm guess. For reference, it seems like raising the rear RC helps a lot on the new carpet (to a point) so while the lowered pivot balls are good to know about, I am not sure if they would help for racing in the US on the new carpet. Might try them, though!

Nothing crazy! Honestly, I am just trying to figure out how much I need to raise SpeedMerchant links to match the RC of an AE pivot, that's all. Sounds like it is somewhere just shy of 0.3 mm.
