Need to increase negative camber. What are best options up front and cost of what you did. Rear also. I am using car for both track and AX (likely to go A-6s) so some compromise involved. Winter project. For track going to be running RA1s (previously 888s). (IMG:style_emoticons/default/evilgrin.gif)
Words of wisdom please. |

The two tires that you list require additional camber to run as fast as bias ply tires.We tested several different "patch" ways to increase camber so we could run the superior radial tires.IE decambered ball joints,monoballs up front etc.We could not get as much mechanical grip these ways.In my opinion, you have to change mounting points to run these radials at there optimum settings.Camber boxes up front with spindle changes and raised pick up points in the rear.All of the products that Racer Chris has develloped-are first class efforts at addressing these problems.We run bias ply slicks due to our designs and limtations.J
