Please excuse the question from the simpleton, but what benefit will this bring ie. straightening up the turnbuckles will help how?

Personally I don't have a clue what it does. I have no where near the ability to work out what helps on the set up of a car. It was requested by one of the local drivers (CBMONKY). After I'd made a few sets I approach Chris Evison who is a Losi team driver, He already had a make shift version of this on his car. He is now running mine . If he's racing today I'll ask him what the effect of having this on the car makes.
Sorry I couldn't be more help at this point, I'm purely a point and press man myself . definitely at the lower end of the scale when it comes to driver ability.

Hi Spoke to Chris today, Apparently it helps create more side bit. In addition to this it helps prevent the ball studs from stripping the thread out of the mounting position.
Hope this helps.

At a rough guess....

it will allow you to run a slightly shorter turnbuckle link between the same pivot points on camber block and rear hub...

there will be slightly less force from roll on the hub pivot.

This will help stop the outside tyres from rolling over too much and losing traction/sidebite, whilst still allowing the roll needed to get the car to pivot smoothly and fast

The outside tyre rollover is a bit of a 22 trait and coupled with the far too good steering system makes the back end feel loose until you can balance the weight of the car to suit driving style!

The thing that concerns me about this mod is the height that the inner ballstud will be sat when fitted... in testing i preferred a 1mm shim under inner ballstud and 2mm under hub ballstud as i felt the car was a bit more aggressive with turn in and squared up quicker which i liked.... although a fair few drivers preferred the reverse.

It's an interesting mod and definitely worth trying, any extra tuning options are a bonus so top work Cream

P.S...

what's the shiny motor plate for? is it a special modified one?

i was considering making/modifying one which would allow the motor to sit slightly lower in the car without having to run different gearing (motor mounting holes lowered!)

Cars not mine it's CBMONKY's so you have to ask him about the motor plate. I know he binned one he got off e-bay that what bent. So that is either new or original.
BTW the plate lifts the ball studs 2mm. The web to the rear is to give it a little more strength at the thinest point.
