hey buddy, to help kill of axle tramp change your air pressure

Up or down Simon? I have the rears around 28-29psi to try and get a little more grip.......... Don't get me wrong, it is not that bad at all, it does get a little though.

Good question, I get a bit of axle tramp with ~ 36PSI in the rears

One would think lower the pressures because if your getting a bit of axel tramp at 36PSIand F6 rapid is still getting a tiny bit of axel tramp at 29PSI it needs to come down just a little bit more, say 25 PSI. Also I cant see the tyre pressures going over 40 PSI that's just too much.

FPV driving instructors recommend 40 PSI to stop sidewall flex, and also mention running that every day is no problem, and extends tyre wear. I run nearly 40 psi in mine, all good...

I find the ride quality suffers big time over 32psi. I am prepared for a little sacrifice of sidewall flex....... :nono:

Has anyone look at the Caltracs that can be bought? as sjperformance put in one magazine saying they will be out in the BA in February, must mean this year though.

Supposedly they are like a 4 link rear end without the costs, the more they are loaded the more they grip?

Or is this only true when using it with drag slicks?
