    one other note on RR after looking at car this weekend. We also moved some ballast weight over the RR. We have our battery and 50 lbs of lead just in front of and up of the RR. This is another one in my head should have made our tight entry worse, but it got much better. We had actually tried a lightweight lithium battery in place of an AGM and went back to the AGM but because of the weight placement affect on corner entry.

    not sure if any of that is helpful but it did get us from being peaky fast, to fast almost every night and most places we went. the end of the year we were just moving some wheel spacers as adjustments.

      Ok, we are in the process of moving some weight around too. The book for the Chassis MFR calls for the same thing.

      The Tire wear is wierd one, Ive noticed it for years at Florence. I can get one to wear but i have to cut on it a lot, but then its just the rubber giving up due to the lack of support.

      No racing this past weekend, a lot of rain around here, we shall see for the next race date.

      Just say no...

        Weight ensured consistent roll keeping the axle steered on entry.
