So what's next?*

[Smart Alex]

What's next on the to do list? Probably just make a couple front shock changes and take it to Adams go kart track Thursday for drift night to try out the changes see if I can make the truck turn in. The push was really bad it has the most narrow spot to try and catch turn in.

Do you have upper link adjustment plates mike?
So on my race truck I used this software I have to calculate all the crap: instant center, roll center, center of gravity, roll moment ect. So basically the way I set up the rear 4 link was with 3 sets of holes that made the span between link pivots larger or smaller. According to my calculations the 3 spans I chose was 1 to lift the rear tires on weight transfer, one neutral and one to drive the tires down hard. My thinking was in the sandier conditions I wanted more float, and hard downward for the harder packed stuff. I'm wondering If the upper link front pivot span is causing the front to lift lessening the front wheel traction. So basically when on the gas it's not very responsive. Pm me your email address and I'll email you a copy. I can coach you with it a little but I haven't touched it in a few years. Grab a tape measure and calculate your creation, I'm thinking with a little fab and tape measure with the numbers crunched for you showing your weight transfer result as it currently sits may help shed some light on your questions on the trucks handling. It may not all be in the shocks, I'd leave those alone till you see the tuck n droop numbers reguarding weight transfer.
