Default 5 Degree Yokes

I ran my KF for the first time the weekend, and really liked it. Completely standard at the moment, but still felt like a big improvement on my old SV.

I have only been racing for 6 months, so not sure what the 5 Degree Yokes would do, but someone suggested I should get them as the make a big difference. What do they improve.

If anything I felt I was lacking steering on the tight corners.

Thanks

The extra 5 degrees gives more entry & less power on, think it makes it less twitchy aswell. Dont forget to set the ride height again if you change blocks though.

Thanks, I will get some to try and probably go down on the diff oil from the kit spec. Several cars were cutting inside me on the tighter corners.

Car felt good to me everywhere else.

I normally find that if it gets web then I go back to standard kit yoke and then when the grip starts to come back up go to the 5 degree yokes. I do this on all my 2wd cars so 25 degree when wet then 30 degree to calm it down when you have the grip. HTH
