Tech Initiate
Roll Centers
With the stock chassis we are running no front riser plate. We use 1mm or 1.5mm spacers from TakeOff. The lower you go the more steering you get.
In the rear we are using 1.5mm to 2mm spacers on top of the riser plate. The higher you go the more free your rear will be.

Raising the rear RC takes grip off the rear in mid and exit and that's the opposite of what i'd need as well.
Correct me if im wrong tho' but thats my understand from what ive been told by ther top guys at the club. Unless the Mi2 is completeley different to what i no or im wrong .......
Also when u lowered the front RC & raised the rear's ... was this on a high grip track .... ?

the upper and lower deck are 2.5 mm.the differences are the batt location is as close as possible to the centerline and moved forward(still need to test the forward position,its location may change from front to rear),chassis is much thinner,i removed some through pockets and replaced with partial pockets,and i smoothed the corners of the chassis so it was not so squared off.the upper brace is closed in the front and rear to eliminate bulkhead compression or pinching that causes tweak.here is a front side pic of the car.there is a funny glare on the upper brace pocket in the pic that i cant explain.in person you can not see it.

Another great day of racing. The carpet season is underway and the MI2 was well represented in the main. 4 MI2's with the MI2 taking the Tq and the win. The spool once again proved to be faster than the oneway. I know more about the car for this carpet season compared to last year when I first received the car.
Mo has a killer set up for foams and I have a killer set up for rubber tire's. With the regionals coming up in about two weeks we are looking to have the MI2 turn some heads if they aren't already looking our way.

It was real stable and easy to drive. You can drive it hard into the corners and dive in on guys running a oneway. Play around with it and let me know what you think. It's basically what we run on asphalt with two changes.
