I ran the car (indoor carpet) for the first time last night and I have to say the car felt good, a bit edgy and very direct. It felt easier to drive the harder I pushed – This is good

Things I changed from kit:

30 wt / 350 in the rear shock 37.5 / 450 in the front
Short wheel base
Rear Shock on the outer hole on the wish bone

However, I did suffer from what we call at my club as the ‘Schumacher curse’. This is the third car I’ve built but the first car to fall apart. It may have been me being a gentleman sausage, but I have now brought some industrial strength lock tight LOL.

So for people who have never built a Schumacher before remember; lock tight, lock tight, lock tight……

Question – Can’t get the ride height on the rear any lower then 20mm?
