Big thanks to Schum driver James Howarth for the Spur gear and the setup tips. Roll on Aldershot next Sun...

When you guys mount bodyshells on the EC how far back do you mount the shell, how big is the gap between the bumper and the front of the shell?

I know bodies vary but what sort of gaps so you guys use for the various bodies and surfaces?

I have a PF DNA1 and a Mazda 6

thats funny....I guess in all the years I have been racing i might have lost 5 spurs due to pebbles...thats not even 1 a year...guess it also helps that we run on mostly prepared surfaces that are pretty clean
