Additional things...

I moved the rear arms forward 2mm to decrease my wheelbase a bit because the track was really tight (5-6' lanes), and I wanted it to rotate better in the corners (and additionally this should put more weight over the rear arms which should mean more traction). I also added 2mm spacers on the rear shock arm mount (mostly because I moved the arm forward 2mm so I wanted to make sure the shock was free to move, but it also added a bit of leverage which probably adds a bit of traction too).

I broke out in the main because while I added the 2mm shim on the lower shock mounts and had 4mm shim on the outer camber link, the set screws were not long enough to support this much shimming... so definitely need to use a longer set screw for these positions.
