Re: Chassis Setup for GT40s

Way back when I raced [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]and there was still plenty of room for improvement.
Using Dunlop 265/590R16 SS12M front and 265/625R17 D11 rear
Springs:- 250lb front and 450lb rear
Sway bar:- 1 1/8" front 3/4" rear
Shockers:- AVO coil over adjustable
Toe:- 1mm out front 0-.5mm in rear
Castor:- 4 deg. neg.front and 0 rear
Camber:- 4-5deg neg all round

This worked well for me at the time
Spring rates depend on angle of mounting (vertical is good)
Anti roll bars depend on chassis torsional stiffness
Spend money on shocks at least double adjustables ie bump and rebound -- gas assist [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beerchug.gif[/img]
