mid motor solution for rear motor chassis
hello all,
I wasn't sure where to post this but the idea is from this thread.
The 22 in rear motor config is also lacking grip in low grip conditions.
When i read the idea of swapping the rear arms i was eager to try this.
This moves the motor back from the tires by 14 mm or so.
Which should give it more pressure on the rear tires.
I ran it yesterday for the first time and it was great.
More traction and a better balance between front end grip and rear grip.
The 22 always felt loose under acceleration wich was way better this way.
I drove a B4 yesterday for a comparison and my 22 felt better.
That was a first I can tell you.
When there is a lot of grip the 22 is fantastic, but that is rarely the case
at my track. So maybe with this solution I can get the car to work in
all conditions. The only downside I ran into is the weird forward sweep
that the driveshafts make. I ran about 6 packs and no problems so I think
it will hold.
Greetings
Hans
