Good work!!!
I'm bound by the rule book and have to maintain my trailing arm design, so a setup like that isn't part of my plan. I am running my toe link forward. It will be more clear once I get the chassis side complete... but that will have to wait until I get back home.... Fun in the sun!!!!! |

More talent than I will ever have (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) B Hi Kevin, I am the current owner of Blakes' car and motor. Last season we sat down and tried to optimise the setup. Rear rideheight was lowered about 2 in. (there is now a signiffant dent in the x-pipe above the axel and the cross-over pipe under the bell housing is worn thin.) The front and rear have been bump steered and cross weighted. The rear camber is about as Blake ran it with minimum toe in and toe change. (trailing arm bushes are by CFW as are the camber plates.) (Front struts are by CFW) Rear Piviots points are stock.) Motor has about 12 races on it. Net Results were 2 poles under the lap record, 1 lap record, and 1 win. (I'll discuss the Trans- HE- on the other thread) Ed Givler |
