Well, JConcepts Indoor qualifiers are over. I'm in the B-Main. Wasn't expecting to be with the fast guys.

- Running a 16 lap pace, 3rd B Main qualifier.
- Been fighting a twitchy car all weekend.
- Marcus of RCShox said it best today, "the front wheels are driving the car around the track."
- I have both rear TD brass weights, and JC Hybrids with CC foams rear seemed to work the best for rear traction. JC Double Dee's grip well up front but seem to be too much steering and is making the car uncomfortable to drive right now.
- I dropped rear oil to 32.5 with kit pistons. Front is 37.5 now.
- Diff oil 7/7, slipper is decently loose, 80% throttle expo, kit springs.

If anyone has any suggestions to get the car to calm down more and be easier to drive and more predictable, I'd love it.

One thing that caught me off guard, was all the tires I brought, I'm not using. Running JC tires front/rear that I bought at the track.

Funny how my local track conditions changed so much this weekend I had to rethink my tire options.



First get rid of any sway bars. Second raise the inner front link to the highest hole on the tower. Diff fluid thicker in front to slow it down. Move tops of the shocks in, lower out.
The car really needs the new castor blocks, that are coming.
Try a harder front tire, I went to the Proline MC scrubs with Proline Cc insert, and it responded really well.
I ran a whole new setup yesterday.
