| All Recommendations are based on a late model set up for Caraway Speedway and would apply to any asphalt track of similar length, radius, and banking. |
At ride height, we like to place the Moment Center horizontally 0 to 4 inches left of center
and vertically 1 to 3 inches above the ground. At full compression, we like to see it move
to 6 to 10 inches left of center to 0 to 2 inches above ground.
In terms of the charts we generate, a positive number in the horizontal column indicates
left of center while a negative number indicates right of center. A positive number in the
vertical column indicates above ground while a negative number indicates below ground.
Below is an example of a car with a moment center way too far to the left. We were able
to move it for them while maintaining their camber settings.
