Ill handling Sprinter

[Higman Racing]

Can some tell me how to get sprinter to handle well. I have 30wt oil in all shocks with outlaw springs and silver tires. My car has ok turn in but after that it pushes and if I try to run on the bottom, comming off the turn on power the front tires chatter.:mad:

need more info. what rear toe in are you running? what camber? whats the track like? what pistons do you have in the shocks?

sounds like you have to much rear bite. try a pink right rear or maybe you have to much rear tow in for your track conditions.

I have the stock blocks on 1 degree, 2 degree of chamber, the track is high bite clay, with stock pistons. I believe they are number 2.

If that was my car and seeing you say the track is high bite I would try pinks all the way around the car,and add one more degree of camber in the RF.Make sure your front toe is 0 or at the most 1 degree toe in.

Another thing you might want to try is putting a 0 degree block on the right rear. Go stiffer on springs in the rear, Try TC3 silvers, thats what im running on the rear of my CW car.

If the front tires are chattering you probably have too much CASTER. Try 15deg blocks or 15 on the right and 10 (backwards right 20) on the left side. If this loosens the car up too much, add some wedge or move the wing back a little. 50W oil may settle the car down as well. Also, make sure nothing is bent or binding by removing the wheels and shocks and checking the suspension travel/freeness.

All arms are free. What are the stock caster blocks cuz those are whats on the car.

25 Deg on CW

WOW!:eek:

[Breckenridge]

Don't forget to re-adjust your camber and steering links after making the switch. Changing even 5 degrees of caster will throw them out of whack.

actually they are 20 deg. that come on cw cars.

when the tires start to chatter u usually have to go to a heavier weight shock oil...try 40 or 30 with number 3 pistons only if the track is smooth

[loopedout]

the newer cars seem to be coming with 20 deg blocks, mine came with 25's, theres also a change to the rear hub carriers on the new cars as well. Id run heavier oil maybe 50 in the rear and 40 up front, move your rear shocks in to the inner mounting hole on the rear a arm. try raising a rear end a bit, then then lower the front. i have a hard time on corner exit on power too sometimes if the rear is hooked up too much like lifting the front tires lol. stiffer rear softer front, just remember one change at a time. we dont run wings though so getting these things to handle is tricky here, youre lucky
