Had a new set of shafts ready to go on, (quicker than changing just the buds), then changed the ones off the car for the next change.

Many thanks to Lewis for all the support for the event, well done to everyone on our team, the car looked good in everyones hands. Really enjoyed the meeting but am really tired now!!! The car was great to drive and was consistent throughout the 24hrs. Also well done to Stu for organising the team and Nathan for keeping us all going.

do you mean by that that you have to shorten the rod or that another turnbuckle is neede to get short enough?
And do you know the length of this steeper-mounted pushrod? Just that we, overhere in Belgium, can figure out how to try this mod, since having no examples running around here (yet). [edit] .... ooh wait a minute. Nathan is comming over next weekend. We might see it in his car then. But then again, it would be nice to be able to prepare this before the EIR-race, just so we could try it out as well. |

Good to see the pred holding up to the abuse of 24 hours of near consistent use. The preds of old would have needed their gearbox's rebuilding quite a few times over in that time.
Lowie, the mod looks like this I think mate It looks like the screw is secured by taping the wishbone rather than a nut on the other side. Bit of a guess but I should imagine the rod is the 30mm ones used for the rear toe links.

i have been running this mod on my pred since i bought it just over a month ago, nathan said to me to start off with the turnbuckles about 23mm long (23mm turnbuckle showing between the ball cups)

You do have the tightest team manager in the world though.
I think we went through 27 sets of rears give or take a couple. and maybe 10 pair of fronts. Well done to Xtreme, i was impressed, as everyone was how well the pred stood up to the task. |

lee if we were tight on tyres mate shumacker only doing six sets must have been sown up tighter than a *&%^*&*&%)*, (too explicit to state) the pred did the buisness all the way

as kev says the rear link (tow in) turn buckle is fine for the job. i also use the cone washers from the front hub top link to allow more clearance for the ball joint. if you dont have the parts lowie then pm me m8 and i will bring the parts with me on friday with the rest of your/barts stuff

I found the EBOR car to be very 'sharp' in the steering department. It was very positive on turn in, if I concentated on the job then it was faster - no doubt.
It was good, but I'll not be busting a gut to make the 'team mods' myself as I find the kit standard X11 to be very suited to my lazy driving style, ie it virtually drives itself around the track -
