chassis hike?

[racer15r]

ive got a shaw car setup to the book with a limiter chain on lr. My problem is it doesnt want to keep the LF on the ground on most track conditions. The car drives in good but once i pick up the gas the car feels like it gets too much lr drive, gets tight and picks the lf up any ideas on how to keep it down?

You can shorten the chain or reduce angle in pull bar, sometimes the jbar has too much angle will cause this, but I would shorten the chain some 1st. Good luck.

thanks, pullin the chain down was what i was thinkin too. thanks for the reply

Anytime.

Just remember that an .25 inch in chain length makes a difference so make small adjustments. Again good luck.

I've got an 09 shaw. Measure from the top of your bird cage to the bottom of your frame rail. I've got mine set at 15 1/2 inches for tacky then let it out 1/2 inch more for sick. what is everyone else doing on the chain lenght?

[rubbinsracin]

first thing i would do is lower the panhard on the frame. do you run a straight bar or a J bar?

shaw chassis hike

Have 2011 Shaw. Shorten chain,a link at a time. Take wedge out. Take rake out of Jbar. Move car over on rear from 11 3/4 to 11 1/2 or 11 1/4. Small changes!!
