Basic Chassis Setup

Base Setup (Normal Track Conditions)

The following settings are recommended as a starting point for a dry track with normal levels of grip

(not “green” or slippery and also not with high amounts of rubber on the track, causing high grip).

Weight distribution should be 43.0% front, 57% rear and 50/50% side to side.

Front toe should be set out to 1/16” to 1/8” (1-3mm). For hard compound tires, set toe out at

1/8” to ¼” (3-6mm).

Caster/Camber adjusters at front spindles should be set at II top & II bottom.

More caster may be needed over the weekend to fight tire wear and/or loss of grip.

Front bumper should always be tight.

Front width should be 45-1/2” to 46”.

Side pod bars need to be loose, but with bolts tight.

Seat should be at standard mounting points.

Rear wheel hubs should be medium length.

Rear ride height should be as low as possible.

Rear track should be set just below the legal limit, within the rules (55” for many classes, 50” for

junior classes. A good starting point would be 54-3/4” for most applications.

Axle should be the medium stiffness.

Seat struts should be in place.

Torsion bar should be in horizontal position.

Rear bumper should be tightened.

Tire Pressures

Hard compound tires (cold) 12-13 psi

Medium compound tires (cold) 9-10 psi

Soft compound tires (cold) 8-9 psi
