Have you tested them? Because I have, including the articulation angle from full droop to full compression with as much of the turning range possible. It’s a decent option for reducing bumpsteer.

I agree with what you said, but it’s also a two sided sword. This is also the main reason people who do the extreme stuff don’t post, because then it turns into a 'that will never work' debate with people who never try anything new.

The picture I posted in the "calling B13s that are low" thread of the B13 racecar, has a completely wacky suspension setup. In fact when they talked to people like Mike K, they even remarked 'oh, we never thought of that'.

I’m all for providing information e.g. the Suspension thread, but people shouldn’t be so quick to over analyze, dissect and judge pre-maturely.

your right, my car is pretty "by the book". but i am not a fabricator or an engineer so making crazy modifications is something i do not do. Also i tend to learn from others mistakes or mistakes i've made, im not tryin to reinvent the wheel.

It's all fun an games till someone gets hurt.

your right! everybody start from someone who has experience, like you mention above. we never thought of what were doing until the experience guy come by and tell whats wrong and whats right. like in that thread "calling b13 that are low", when i first posted my car i have wacky ass suspensions. until shawn b., russell, and kaotekxe came by that thread and gave info out. i did what i can do to change my setup quickly as possible so it would be safe for me the others.
