IMCA SC Lower trailing arm location

[stockcarracer]

I've seen cars with the left lower arm in the bottom hole of the mount on the rear end and some clear up in the top hole. I've seen fast cars with both. Just curious to get some feedback on which way folks think is better and why. Trying to decide which way to start out for next season. Thanks.

Top hole more drive more side bite

bottom hole drives off sideways or free of it induces a lot of rear steer

agree seen fast cars over the years both ways I ran top hole always and had very good success

With it in the top hole did you lead or trail the left rear at all?

no

the point is to have a consistent car under all conditions, leading the rr only 1/8 measured at the widest part of the frame in front of the axle back to the axle resulted in a car that 3 wheeled non stop on average moisture.

trailing the rr 1/8 resulted in a car that drove out to the wall on exit instead of forward

at least for me this is how it went
