Newark Radio Controlled Car Club - A Final 11/10/24
I decided that my 450 front 400 rear oil choice wasn't the right one so changed to 375cst both ends before the meeting.
Practice was on point. Car felt great straight away, I didn't read too much into this as this as been the case for the last few weeks and as soon as qualifying began the car was horrible. Going into Q1 I changed my rearmost wishbone shim to a 3mm, up from 2.5mm. I left the front shim as a 2.5mm to create some "pro squat" and hopefully aid weight transfer to the rear of the car namely on power. Something I've been struggling to get right for a few weeks. The car wasn't terrible, but it still lacked something.
Going into Round 2 I adjusted my top inner shims back to where the car was a few weeks ago which was 2mm on the outer shims (on top of the hub) and 1mm on the inner mounts (on top of the bulkheads). This was now the same front and back. The car felt decent.,
For Round 3 I tried adding "anti dive". This is the opposite to kickup found on buggies. I raised the rear mounting point of the front wishbones to angle the wishbone forwards. If I had hinge pins they would now be at an angle to the chassis. The car was transformed! This is the result.
For the final I left the setup alone. I didn't get the best start, dropped down to last and then parking it to end up being lapped a few laps in. Started to pull it back ever so slightly in the last minute, but wasn't enough to make any places up. New Hobbywing motor running well. Still needs fine tuning on the analyser though.
