Should make it feel more aggressive on steering if i remember correctly. I did it on the XXX hyrid a couple of years back.

if your going to tell him what it was like then give more info than that.. :p why was it that good?

I followed the hybrid car closely and did my own when the team where at it, such a good car.. worked well most places I took it.

Yea i figured i should go into more detail but im to tired. Ill make up a setup sheet tommorow. Basically it just steered more and just seemed more stable. beat a a few people ive never beaten before lol.

Thing that made me really happy was beating my friends mike and craig. So much for x6 and f2 craig :p

Not surprised there, sounds like your 'usualy' setup is gash - just the vla and spring change would have made a big difference. Seriously though, glad you felt the effort was worth it. Now for some MF2 hubs etc to build a 'proper' hybrid...

I haven't seen those kingpin ballstuds before, where I can get some? :lol:

ashleyb4 16-01-2009 12:32 PM
