I have been looking at the website & noticed that the in-field is dirt/grass. How do you guys handle the issue of cars ending up in that part of the track. Iam sure with concrete surface you are using cap tires with traction compound and when those tires reaches racing temp they become sticky & will attract dirt into the tires. I guess the obviuos answere is to stay in the track away from the grass !!!! lol. But sometimes, somebody bump you or there are other cars in your path. oh well. Just like they say....when in doubt...hit the quarter panel....lol Can anyone provide the exact direction...what exit ? from the exit...where to go ? to get to the track ? Thanx..

Dr Will. Did you break anything or tear ligaments?

Thanx WOWRACER1. Thats seems to be what I was looking for. Now, how about some basic set-up. Front springs,center shocks spring & oil weights. Offset pods ? T-plate, fiberglass or steel(med), ride height, tweak-how much weight for the left rear? How much banking on the corners does the track have? How about gear ratio, where do you guys start on? 104/54 maybe? I will be racing stock 4 cells. Thanx

Jeepnyy-Start with red front springs. Medium to short front wheelbase with the right front trailing just a bit. Silver or blue side springs with 30wt. 50-60wt in center with a 5-15# spring depending on preference. Offset pod with about 2oz more on the left rear to start. 112/46+/- for stock depending on motor. Most have been running fiberglass t-plates both bias and straight cut. For your KSG run the blue washers under the front arms and number 3 rider hight adjusters in rear. Wing on pod. Green lefts and blue rights for tires.
This should get you pretty close.

Maybe some of you super speedway guys will help a slow fellow out so you won't have so much traffic.
He is just having to lay around with it mostly but he has got out some . Not quite ready to climb the drivers stand though.

brad put a 45 degree .063 or sraight cut .063 i tried steel and they just act weird at henderson hard to explain its like the t plate is trying to do all the work instead of center shock guess me and todd are going to msa in crossville since regular race week is august 14th maybe we can put the whoop on hacksaw up at msa

wowracer1
08-02-2004, 11:24 PM
Straight up pod

wowracer1
08-02-2004, 11:25 PM
All three screw in the back or just the outsides(t-plate)

GILYHANTREE
08-02-2004, 11:35 PM
i tried straight up on new ksg slider and went to offset and speed up 2 tenths per lap the car drives in easier and comes off 2 better offset try that t plate and offset rear pod and somewhere between 60 to 100 thoushanths stagger in tires i run all green tires but the red car may like blues on the outside overall lenght on center shock on hd should be 288 with spring compressed to around 1 inch hope this helps also side shocks 25 to 35 weight oil silver springs center #2 piston and 50 wt 20lb spring red front springs

GILYHANTREE
08-02-2004, 11:36 PM
all three screws

08-02-2004, 11:40 PM
besides what i posted on here it is just in finding those magic tires if you can find a fast set it makes all the difference but that t plate will make car drive so much easier
