Seen one of these kits last night at the race track nice packaging. And awesome overall kit, nice job KSG:thumbsup:

Just finished my car last night @ the track and tested with it. Very good set-up out of the box. Thanks Danny for the set-up. A few changes for my track. Changed the tires and side spring from suggested set-up and upper a-arm location. Next week will be the real test, actual competition.

To get the AE shock smooth fill the shock body with the piston and rod in it. Then after getting the air out of the oil, move the shaft and piston to the top of the shock body. Put some oil in the shock cap and put it on the shaft should extend. If it does great!! Now check for your smoothness and NO air. Also I have 2 KSG kits you will need to get AE's .71 stroke shock shaft and long RPM rod ends. Car work great with this set-up.

I think starting with Dannys' set-up would be a good point. The things I changed for my flat track were: Center spring-AE buggy green/ #2 piston w/50wt. oil. Side shock springs: BOTH-GOLD, Upper A-arms between it and the steering block 1-Wolfe black spacer and 1-gold kingpin shim. LR hub against bearing NO shims And RR 4 .010 shims. Seemed to turn well in practice and plenty of forward bite. I'll let you know the final results after this SAT. night.

Dropkick, It's not about the car or the chassis of the week club. It's about seeing a very good product and purchasing it because it will work. And as soon as you get your a$$ to Thunder Road you'll see where my ADX is, in the A-main.

Qualified 6th in 19t, Chameleon2 mtrs' w/58-4:03. Finished 6th in A-main, wrong tire choice, goin' after it this week again.

Roadsplat the FINISHLINE symetrical T-PLATE is the one to use and the Associated SILVER would be a buggy front.

 

[jbm38]

I ran at ON-TRAX a couple of times this past summer and went from a medium TRC# 6300 to a stiff t-plate and a stiffer HPI progressive touring car spring. The car compressed less in the corners and picked up overall speed. So yes the STIFF t-plate will help but also check your center shock travel and change spring also if needed. Let us know how you make out. :thumbsup:

 

[jbm38]

Not sure of the lbs. but I just checked and it was a HPI progressive yellow spring. Using a CRC center shock with 90wt oil and on the KSG shock mount the 3rd hole up.

ANYTIME72, If you are who I think then.. Roadsplat you want to try his thick steel t-plate. It should be the same one I used on my high banked racing this year. Worked awesome.

 

[jbm38]

ROadsplat,yeah I meant PEPE, when I ran my KSG on the local flat track I ran the included .063 T-plate.
Thanks for the kind words also, but bad news is we tried to re-order kits and well there are none at this time.
As far as set-up the suggested set-up from SRM is very good. Actually PEPE the thick T-plate I was speaking of was meant for you. But ROADSPLAT, ANYTIME72 also has soft spring steel T-plates that I have run also and work really well.

 

[jbm38]

Roadsplat you should build your scale board with at least 2 scales. And run around 13oz of LR.

 

[jbm38]

The standard ride height adjusters are fine to use.
Danny, How are you doing with your solid plate car?
