Suspension setup for a Dax

Hi all,

Ive read a great deal about a chap called Chang (I think thats his name) on this site. Trouble is I live too far to get to him easily, so Ive booked my cobra in to a local racing company to have the suspension setup. My question is, what settings does this Chang set them up to? Does he use the original Dax settings or is it done by road testing or what? Also, the dax manual says that the castor only needs adjusting if there is a difference of 1/2 degree between sides. Well does that mean that there is no figure for what it should be, just as long as there the same?

RE: Suspension setup for a Dax

Dave is right and it makes a phenominal difference when you get it right.

Hows the relatively new addition to the family going Dave. Helping to build the kits yet.
