Octy1 Tracking difference With the coilies

Featured Replies

For those interested in how dropping an octy affects tracking and by how much, i have the figures.

Tracked and true at stock height, to just under 1mm toe out.

Dropped by 30mm retracked (by me as i have equipment) same equipment and surface parameters.

Difference of 7mm

Dropped onto coilies to near 70mm, and retracked

Difference around 5/6mm.

In my mind to drop a standard octy as low as 70mm will need about 13mm of adjustment to toe in

a vrs (extrapolated guess) would be a drop of 50mm? 8-10mm of tracking adjustment

May not be of use, but demonstrates dropping without tracking WILL kill the tyres!
