New to the forum but not new to racing. Recently I switched from Maxim to Triple X. Since the switch in chassis I have had nothing but problems getting this car to work. I cannot get any bite out of this new car. Has minimal forward bite and loose through the entire corner. We have tried the standard setups for 305s nothing seems to help. So we started doing some crazy stuff and the car has gotten somewhat better but not like my old maxims. Currently we have lighter bars in the car than suggested by anyone but seems to help. Check out what in doing and school me on what I'm missing. So far this new chassis is kicking my a$$.
3/8 mile medium banked track
LF bar 975. RF bar 1000
Shock 5/3. Shock 6/4
Block. 2 1/4. Block 3 1/4
Turns +1 Turns. +1/2
3"offset wheel. 4"offset wheel
LR bar 950 RR bar 975
Shock. 4/7 Shock 5/6
Block 3". Block 4"
Turns +1/2. Turns plus +1/2
5" off wheel 6" off wheel
Spacing 14 1/2" Spacing 17"
13" of stagger
Both rear rods in top holes
Front panhard in bottem hole
Top wing parallel with down tubes 1/2 way back the sliders.
1" wicker bill
13 gallon fuel load
Crosses the scales at 1580
Birdcages are 0 degrees
3/16 lead
1/8 toe
Won 3 features and a points Championship with this setup in my maxim last season. We switched to the Triple X so we tried their standard setup for 305/360 didn't work no drive. We put the setup above in the car and it seems better but can't get it to the track unless I stand the wing straight up. It's only a 305 I shouldn't have to have to put a bunch off wing in the car to put 450hp to the ground. Help please! I'm about to strip it down and send it down the road.
