I think the Ross Monster has found his calling, awesome speed! Had a good battle with him.

Wish I'd been involved with one of the 4 way tussles though, they looked brilliant fun!

Enjoyed driving jefferey's prokart, felt really punchy. The only thing I felt it lacked was a tiny bit of front end grip, but it was nowt really. Probs more setup for Jefferey's mass rather than my super svelt self! :p

Pete I think your r right , was laid in bed thinking about it last night  :blush:  :blush:

I think it may actually have a touch too much rear end grip which id making it push on in the tighter corners, the rear wheels were about 20mm in , will try them out next time see what it does  :t-up:

Ps. you need to be back in the sadle Pete, you looked awesome yesterday , Ross looked like he was breaking into a sweat  :oops:  :laugh:  :laugh:

Looks like aarons doing a good little 2 step there as well! :laugh:

Jeff, I would agree with that analysis. The back end was absolutaly glued. The front end wasn't really that bad at all, but I kept missing the 2nd apex on the 1st switch back as it understeered a tad wide. It wasn't by loads, just off the white lines if you know what I mean. It also driffted after the middle of south bank, this wasn't too bad as I have a hugely wide line into the 2nd switch back anyway.

Its not that bad really, I would call it safe, like you say, loosen the rear a little and it should hopefully restore balance! :t-up:

But will it restore balance in the bravado stakes! :laugh:

little bit more camber and toe out jeff..... unles it has an adjustable torsion bar in there.....

or an angled steering boss so you actually push the front end in ....

and basically stiffer springs ....... or is it softer ???

Harv what effect would increasing caster angle on the front give , heavy steering and more lift ? more front end grip ?

Its got adjusters top and bottom, I have it set about half way ie the top of the bolt leaning back but the bottom of the bolt also leans back which seems good for the dry which on the lasers shows around 2mm+ camber,  I never tried it yet but I could have turned the bottom round so the bolt at the bottom points forward which  gives it 8mm + camber from memory  :suspect:  :suspect:
