without looking at your truck id say the mechanic did something wrong.

our cars were too tight in the center of the corner and on exit this past weekend, so we are going to try 5 7 1 in the diffs, 2.5 rear toe block, and 3 degs of antisquat. had a very rough week at work so my car wasnt ready, or i, but i still went to the track to help and work on our setups with ira and john.

i ran 5,7,2 at LH on monday with 2* rear block and car was dialed, in out and middle of corner, and that was even running m2 holeshots.

o, and i tried the 48T spur this weekend, it was like a whole new car, instant acceleration and no extra wheelspin, makes it alot easier to drive and be easy on the gas, i think it gave me a little more run time also cause i wasnt all over the gas all the time, top end was the same.

thanks chad, we had 5 7 2 with 2.5 not bad, but i think 1 in the back would've helped and then maybe less toe.ran out of time so next week ill start with one and see if its still tight coming off, and then try less toe.not too far off on rotation. and yes the spur is something that ira wants to try. the problem i have with that is on racedays the track dries,gets dusty and slick, then with all of the wheel spin rubber gets layed down and the track is pretty fast in the main, however i dont think i want the car to accelerate harder. thats the problem i had last year after rebuilding my jp mod vspec with what seemed to be a stock v spec sleeve. too much till i went with the jp2 pipe. if you want to run with jimbo or sonny, cory the car needs to be loose yet pull hard off. just a couple of things i want to try, maybe some different tires

i think the wheel spin wasnt a issue for me because of the way that ws7 III pulls, it is almost too smooth on the bottom, wheelspin was very minimal even at lincoln this weekend, and you know how loose it is there.

On my buggy I took out the antisquat (lowest position) and it felt more connected threw the corners off throttle and threw that whooped section off the back straight. Something was right cause I think I finished somewhere 6th threw 8th beating a few I usually dont.

i need to free up my car thats why i said more antisquat, on power less weight transfer. i understand what to do to the car,just letting other mugen drivers in on what we are doing.

mines still setup for outdoor and i love it, and i ran out of 450 so im using all i got, 350 and it feels perfect.

My issue was with that S curves near the window. The truck never felt like it rolled well. And any help from the throttle made it worse by sliding the front end.

I went to a 3.0 rear bar. Still 2.75 block. But the bar helped alittle. Also moved the wheelbase in more. Not by much. It was middle before. Now I think I put 1mm in front. So that and the bar changed helped the truck rotate more. Now I just have to get front traction. If I have any speed or touch the gas. The front slides.

*Cough* toe block *cough*

I was only making small changes yesterday. Block is next on the list. Had to deal with steering issues yesterday. Busted the servo so the JR 9000t went back in. I know that wont last long either. Has the the starting stages of wheel twitch.

Not that I want to help you get faster but 2.50 is what I ran.

Yeah,I saw that on your truck. That is my next change.

2* on the truck inside.

go one down on the sway bars for the indoor, more side bite and steering, and i think i was running the 2.5 rear toe block last year with 3 degs of antisquat. switch tires 450 oil f/r this is for the truck. the car is 400 in the front with 350 in the rear

if your truck is the one i was watching it looked like your front was broke.
350 is not the way to go. 450 but when it gets cold out maybe 400

you guys had two mugen drivers at the track sunday, if you need help please come talk to ira or myself. thats why we are there. you also have cory and he works at the shop.

chad those max life shoes, is it just one kind of shoe, and what about springs

ya just one type, they are about the same weight as stockers, i was using 1.0's with good luck, actually ran those at lincoln and they wer really good, just make sure you DO NOT use little washers under the shoe, they have some that are built into the shoe.

they last alot longer than the moooo's do too.

thanks chad the mugen 1.0 springs right?

yes sir! alltho alot of guys on the grid, myself included have ben breaking moo 1.0's lately, must be a bad batch or something, i jsut ordered like 10 sets and have broke about 5 springs outta that batch, replaced all 3 everytime....

thanks chad, and i broke 2 last weekend

no shit....i thought mabey mine were do to the fact that i got about 10 gallons on the flywheel and the pins are pretty worn, but guys on grid said it was happening to them with brand new flywheel. hmmmm....
