Also, does anybody have any info on spacing up the front t-bar pivot for a lowered roll center? And will this increase traction?

Tire question:

Any body running BSR foams? What is difference between BSR purple,Jaco purple and Parma purple.
Josh's body does have a bit more steering than a Speed 8.

I believe Jaco and BSR use the same rubber, but PARMA rubber is different. The feeling I got was that PARMA and TRC tires have a bit more grip for the same compound shore rating than the Jaco/BSR style rubber.
