Wondering what the thoughts are on camber gain for banked tracks, any different than for a flat track and why?

Any one got a new or like new slider they want to part with email me @dorkscomputers@comcast.net

All I can say is KSG put it on the pole @ lake City RC Speedway for the Jeff Sears Memorial Race. 29 racers in pro stock with some of the best racers in the northeast.
There was 2 KSG, 2 PRO 3, 2 Custom works. This is with the old version. Keep up the great work.
Thanks,

I used a KSG to TQ (new track record) and win the 1/12 scale class at the Jeff Sears Memorial Race in Plattsburgh, NY this weekend.

KSG's also TQ'd the Pro Class and won the Sportsman Class.

Great job to all.

Ok how much closer to release of the new car?

OMG is all I can say about my KSG,,,,, had one of the local hot shoes help me with it and MAN was I faster. I finally this season grew up and ran some stock and had been having troubles, until this weekend and man was that car fast, and very easy to drive.
Thank you to muddd for the help and to his father who also dialed it in some more.

Good lord am I gonna be faster from now on with a correctloy handling car its so much more enjoyable to drive a car that handles properly...................

Thanks KSG for the car to drive and man can not wait to get back to the track.

How about some good news, tell us the new car is days away from being available, please.

I have the blank setup sheets from Andy in .pdf format as well as in a Word document where I made it editable using text boxes so you can neatly edit your info. It is filled with filler text when you get it, but that is just so you can see where all the boxes are. Just take that out. If you need one, just PM or post your email with which one you want.

Car is getting closer to ship date. Be patient, there's been a lot of sickness around the family that slowed production a bit, but Andy and Jimmy are in full gear trying to get the new car out soon. As soon as a ship date is known, it'll get posted. Hang in there!:thumbsup:

Tommy Peters

As noted by Andy in another thread, the new car is being shipped as a conversion right now. Full kits are still in the works, but not too much longer.

Tommy

Thanks Tommy they look nice!!!!

Can someone please tell me what the toe corrector actually does...Thanks

Removes bump steer......

Align your toe-out to 0 deg's......press down on the center of front end compressing your springs. You will notice that your front left wheel will start to rotate counterclockwise without any input from steering....... The toe corrector removes that.

Kenny

I have heard people say it only fixes it when you run your LF arm up on the caster block, which makes no sense to me since that would actually make the difference even greater. I run one on my cars with the LF arm all the way down and have about as close to zero bump as I think is possible.

As long as your upper a-arm is the same angle as your tierod you wont have any bumpsteer....... So if your running it in the bottom hole on the castor block you generally will have none or very little bumpsteer cuz the angles are usually very close. So you really only need it if you run your upper a-arm is in the top 2 holes of the castor block. (the highest hole making the problem most noticeable)

Hays Jr

You know, I hate to tell this person they may be right but I guess I never actually thought that through... It is right. But for some reason the way I have my stuff in my car with the toe corrector on there it makes the angles be the same whereas it wouldn't be without it. I have my funny or something....

thank you for the sheets Tommy!

Tommy,
Hit me with a sheet!
Thanks dude,

stangfe1@charter.net

how about a sheet for an older racer using an awesome KSG car with the ORL series in the east. :wave: abdule@zoominternet.net

awesome fast reply.........is there a chance that you might have a set-up sheet for the 1001 ? ( i sent you an e-mail) thanks again)

No setup sheet for the older car, but you can use the sheet for the Gen2. The "0" front end locators are the standard front end locations for the original XCS. Just mark the "0" as the locators you used. Also, the center T-plate holes are the standard t-plate locations on the original XCS. Those are the basic differences. I could be missing something, but I think that is all. Everything else should translate over pretty clearly.

Tommy

I'd like one of those set up sheets also, if someone could send me, thanks. wrbombard@msn.com

Congratulations to Corey Heft on his win in 4 cell open mod at the Midwest Carpet Oval Championship in Vinton Iowa.

Is the new car worth buying if I only run 4 cell stock? I've got a good handle on my old car. I really like the new car but just undecided if I should buy one or not.
Thanks,
Fireball

Bank or flat?



Adam Liehr :dude:

flat mostly highest banking is about 8 degrees.

What does using a longer center shock shaft do?

Hi Kenny,

i think you should buy the conversion kit.....the offset t-plate set-up is really good for flat carpet...this past saturday i reset the TRack REcord at RCtoybox in VT....
