Cool. So putting each flyweight with 2 set screws (at the end of both sides of the tip??), you need to put 6 set screws in total right?

- The new yellow clutch shoe is having a better bite. (Sorry to Julius for arguing him on the TSN forum) I can screw in almost 1 full turn (centax spring nut) comparing to black one. It has same effect with modded flyweight.
Every one is guilty ! So you guys got the yellow shoes? We're still waiting for ours.

Woow ! The UBO / LT combo is the 2nd highest rear roll center setting !

makes the car easier to drive and faster.
True. This is what I found too. A little more front droop gives more predictable on power steering.

Another goodie? Are they much lighter? I think the standard one is already durable as it is.

The best part about this forum (particularly this 710 forum, yay !) is the amount of information we share. See, no need to go for race and people will share precious information... (j/k).
