I'm looking for some help on the set up of my hyperdrive slider 700. I race in pittsburgh at Steel City Hobbies. We have a flat track with a 165 foot run line, and ozite carpet. Just can't find a happy medium. Eithier to loose or to tight. Any input would be greatly appreciated. My e mail address is n busch1222@yahoo.com

Question, On flat asphalt. Left front locater in middle position and right front locater in inside position. what action and reaction can I expect in, through and out of the turn? 0700 chassis

Question,On banked concrete Left upper arm lengthened by spacing out the upper suspension arm mount. Do I help free the car up in the turn with this and whats the down side? Pro-2 chassis
Also same scenario for flat asphalt.

Thanks in advance

Wade, I,m hoping someone who knows will answer your questions :) my last two outtings were Disasters LOL dang carpet and foam is killin me :rolleyes: going fishing next Sat.
I do know that a longer upper a-frame will lessen the amount of camber gain/lose thru out the wheel travel.

wade
03-12-2006, 10:16 AM
I know the longer a-arm will help with camber (I think) But what else is it doing. I'm running 0 degree caster on the left side with the longer arm. What I see is this makes the left side wheel-to-wheel chassis length longer then the right side. Whats the action, re-action to that ?

waiting on one of the fast Hyper-Team guys to enlighten me http://www.hobbytalk.com/bbs1/images/icons/icon7.gif

Hey Wade, im not sure ya wanna space your a-arms out like that, I don't think there's any advantage to it... I would suggest leaving your front end the way it's supposed to be built in the asc kit, but with the HD caster blocks. :thumbsup: Also by moving your right front in will free the car up, moving it out will make it tighter, and moving your left front out will free ya up & moving it in will make ya tight. It's best to start with them both in the the center & go from there. Hope that helps.

Wade, running less caster on your LF than your RF will lead in with the left front tire & make the car turn in a lil more aggressive.

Hey Hacksaw, Im gonna try make it to a few cap tire races this summer. I haven't raced caps since like 98, so it might take a minute to get back up to speed. When's the first big race everyone is going to?

When you lengthen the upper arm it kinda does the same thing as raising the upper arm up. It keeps the camber the same through suspension compression and gives you more steering center off. It doesnt take much to make a difference either.
