if you had to pick one thing on a rayburn frontend to change to help it roll and turn through the center better without using alot of brake on a short stop and go,what would that be,this is the standard rayburn frontend with 19 lower on rf

can you go to shorter lower and upper to help in center

having problems with tight cornered tracks and truning through the center
frontend may not be it,dont know,bars may be running the wrong direction
any ideas or things you may have doen would help me with ideas


does anybody have any experience moving roll centers on a rayburn to help it roll the frontend more

After what I told him to do, that thing will probably turn so well they will probably back into the fence and need a new car anyway! LOL

PS, Biz if you have a boat I might be able to paddle my way half way to your state.

In this case, I won't for a couple of reasons.

1. I talk to him on a regular basis and know his car/tracks and am pretty familar with his situation.

2. This is actually something kind of experimental and isn't fully tested but first indications look promising and I have worked with him before so this is a way for me to get some info on car and track types that I'm normally not around.

3. I'm unfamilar with your type of car so I really can't tell which way to go with the adjustments as depending on the car one way will make it looser or tighter and vice versa bepending on how the car is build. Hard to discribe without giving it away and I'm not ready to do that yet. Then if this works as well as I think it will, I won't give it to anyone except people that I have a really close working relationship with for several years.

I try to help as much as I can but there are alot of things I keep to myself, most of the things I talk about are either basics or older stuff that we have moved on from.

Hope you understand,

Kent
