Has anyone got a decent starting set up for tiverton please.I have never raced there before. I have looked on cml but could only find one from about 3 years ago with ribs up front. I am going to be runnig losi studs and step pin rears.

this is Pidge's setup. I used it last time I ran my B4 there and it was ace.

Does anyone know (Pidge or Craig) if the above set-up was using the super-short wheelbase???? It says short, but doesn't mention the inboard option...

Yes yes, super short last time I spoke to Pidge. Ive been running that setup and it was ace at tivvy and just 5 wt higher all round and blue front springs and it was ace at CML and Eden Park.

I know it's something that keeps getting mentioned but what is the difference between the old and new style chassis brace? I mean in terms of washers.
1 washer on new brace = 3 washers on old brace???

remove some material from the front of the wishbone and then put an 030 spacer behind, also run short on the hub spacing as well.
thats what I ran anyway.

Personally I cut the0.03 nubbins at the rear of the anti squat/ toe in bar and spacers the A arms forward
Saves filing A arms down all the time if they snap, round out of need replacing.
