Did long overdue brake fluid flush with fresh RBF700 and swapped my temporary adjustable endlinks for Tein ones. Need to give those wheel wells a nice clean after this summer

@MrSkubi: I also have Tein Flex A's. What damper setting do you use on track?

Honestly it depends on track and tire. This year I’m mostly tracking on R888r and for more technical (karting style) tracks I like them quite stiff like -3/-4 clicks from stiffest and -5 rear. For Tor Poznan (fast track) I set them up initially at -5 clicks front and -7 rear for warm up session and than make them 2 clicks stiffer in the following session and adjust further (make them stiffer or sorter) from that depending on how much understeer/oversteer I’m getting. There is no good definitive answear really to that question - just some general ideas where to start. For more street oriented tire I wouldn’t go as stiff and start closer to the middle of the range like -7 front and -8 rear but it’s me some ppl might benefit more from completly different settings. I hope it helps just a little bit 😉

Thanks. I've got mine at -7 for street. You've given me good ideas on where to start with track adjustments.

Exclamation Work Meister S1 3Ps

Picked up my Work Meister S1 3P rims today and put my front tireless 18" x 9.5" -14 rim on to see how she's gonna look with my molded RB fenders 🥰🥰.

Got to my car after work today.

Like they made contact and had to force their car past mine? No note from this motherfucker. Going on the hunt this week when I get to work.

Clearly the driver is the product of an unwed mother!
