Have you tried the 1 hole rear hubs, and how do you feel they compare with the kit items? I've been running them for over 18months but was wondering if kit hubs would be better. When do you decide to use 1deg outboard toe instead of just inboard? THanks Skiddins |

My old body is quite wrecked now and now I'm looking for a new one. I am driving a Protoform MG ZS body (200mm) on my T3'11 wich is very nervous on the back. What will be a good replacement????? |

Hi. Kinda a hard question. for more grip you will most likely have to take away steering, is the car getting loose during switch back or entering?. I would try 14g static weight on the front end of the chassis. this will definately make the car easier to drive but not as reactive. also if you have a lot of rear droop you could take some out. Thanks. |

Hi. I think that you will want to do the opposite, add weight to the front of the chassis with 3.0 or maybe 2.8 front springs. It may sound weird but it should work better than going stiffer spring and adding weight to the rear.[/quote] Hi but why add weight to front? so front will have more grip...and rear less[/quote] More weight dose not always mean more grip. Adding weight to the front will give more rear traction. test it both ways yourself, try 3.2 F spring and add weight to the rear, then try 3.0F spring and add weight to the front. you will find that the car will be much easier to drive and have more rear traction with the 3.0 spring and weight in the front of the car. Thanks. |

Hi Paul, I'm refering to your 2011 fall classic set up,you were using Paragon as your additive. Firstly, is it the Fx 2 or the ground effects. Secondly, how do you treat the sweep tires with the paragon on carpet, do you just appy it on a rag and just rub it, or do you let it soak wet until it dries up. Thirdly, is there a specific timing when to apply the Paragon before every run. Because i believe every additive has its own unique way of applying it,especially with loads of different brand of tires available on the market with different characteristic of rubber. Thanks in advance. Regards, Eddy |

Hi Paul, Thanks for the info. I assume the 20 minutes would be for both front and rear. To tame steering especially with Paragon is there a different if lets say applying full front with less timing than the rear VS applying the inside half only with the same duration as applying to the rear?. Thanks Regards, Eddy. |
