Car Setup Information

Probably more relevant to MNR owners, but here it is all the same.

 

Overall car weight is 480.5kgs and goes up to 580kgs with me in it

Weight of the front end is 241kgs – 262kgs with driver
 
Front left
124kgs with driver
2mm out
– 1.5 degrees camber
 
Front right
138kgs with driver
2mm out
-1.5 degrees camber
 
Front to rear weight –
Left – 244.5 kgs – 275.5 with drvier
Right – 236.5 kgs – 204.5 with driver
 
Rear left
151kgs with driver
-1 degree camber
Was 0 degrees toe, but I have toe’d it in 0.5 turns of the rod end both sides
 
Rear right
167kgs with driver
-1 degree camber
Again 0.5 turns of the rod end in
 
Rear weight
240kgs – 318kgs with driver

note – camber figures are lower due to me using AVON ACB10 cross-plys – List 1B tyres such as Toyo 888’s or Yokohama A048 would need more camber.

Front end summary –
Inboard MNR design rising rate pushrod suspension, forgot to get the sprint rates
No front anti-roll bar
Front Protech shocks are at 7 clicks

Rear end summary –
The springs on the rear of the car are 250lbs/8 and are too short for the droop of the car suspension and you need to be careful about letting the car back down and making sure the springs are seated properly
Rear is 5 clicks on the Protech shocks
No rear anti-roll bar

Ride heights to follow

Please note that the setting above with cross-ply tyres are for sprints and hills only. Running this setup on the road makes for a lively car that darts all over the road.

No prizes for anyone stating that I weigh 99.5 kgs, my only excuse is that I am 6ft 4
