ALTERNATIVE 1 (BLADE ANTI-ROLL BAR)
is recommended for long, fast tracks when maximum cornering speed is needed. With the blade anti-roll bar, the car will not dive in the corners and will
maintain maximum speed. Follow the “Alternative 1“ assembly steps described immediately below.
is recommended for smaller, technical tracks when fast direction changes and side weight changes are needed. Follow the “Alternative 2“ assembly steps starting
on page 28; DO NOT assemble the blade bar as described immediately below.

The position of the front arm directly influences the steering
Ackermann (angle of the steering linkages). When the arm is
moved to rearward position (shim in front of the arm), the angle
of the steering linkages changes and gives less Ackermann. By
decreasing the Ackermann, the car gets more turn-in & increased
steering at corner exit, but less cornering speed. The Ackermann
can be changed by Ackermann inserts (see page 34, step 1).

Ensure that the suspension arms move freely. Ensure that
the eccentric holders move freely.
When the bar is set, verify that both sides move at the
same time. If they do, the bars are set up correctly. If
not, make sure that both downstops are the same. If the
arms still do not move at the same time, gently loosen
the screw which holds eccentric bushing and rotate the
bushing until the arms move at the same time. Retighten
the screws fully.
