At what angle do most run the 3rd link? I see them running almost level and others with a large down angle to the frame. I used to have some of this info but do not know where I put it.

I would start with 15degrees.I like the longer bars.

How does raising or lowering affect the handling? I am trying to get our 2nd car setup. It is a 3/8 mile dirt with long turns and about 9* banking. Car has to be at 3175 or more after the race. Trying to get more side bite and forward bite. I am just trying to see what changing the 3rd link up or down will do. With it at the same angle as our primary car, it just does not work, tight in loose off and no adjustment there does much. Working on that tight in right now.

With tight entry try softer l/f spring,more front stagger ,lower l/f air pressure,more toe out
