Track Settings Ride Height In general always run the car as low as possible, without the chassis grounding out. Ride Height A good starting point with foam tyres is 3.5mm. Using these Eccentrics for the foam diameter stated will give the kit rear ride height setting of approximately 3.5mm. 42.5mm 43.0mm 43.5mm 44.0mm 44.5mm 45.0mm 45.5mm 46.0mm 39.0mm 39.5mm 40.0mm 40.5mm 41.0mm 41.5mm 42.0mm 42.5mm Roll Springs Roll springs are used to control the cars steering balance.
Track Settings Rear Bump Spring This spring is used to set the pod angle. Adjust the spring tension so that the pod is horizontal when the car is on a flat surface. This gives the kit setting with zero anti-squat or pro-squat. A harder bump spring can give more initial steering. A softer bump spring will give more aggressive mid corner steering and improve the cars bump handling ability. Anti-squat If the bump spring is screwed down further, the pod will no longer be horizontal.
Track Settings Roll Centre The roll centre can be adjusted by adding or removing spacers from below the pivot mount and pivot block. MUST have equal spacers beneath both parts. Lowering the roll centre (removing spacers) will give the car more grip and increase chassis roll. Raising the roll centre (adding spacers) will increase steering by making the car rotate more from the rear. The alloy pivot mount and block need a 1mm spacer in order to maintain kit roll centre.
Track Settings Front Toe Toe-out Toe-in Parallel front wheels or a slight Toe-out (up to 1 degree per side) is our suggested setting range. Toe-out gives more initial steering. It does however make the car more difficult to drive on the straight, due to increased responsiveness. Camber Positive Negative Increasing the negative camber angle will increase the cars steering. This will make the car more difficult to drive but often faster on a lap.
