Wow, that's a really soft front spring you were running for astro, equivalent of a Associated black? (3.2 lb/in). I've only ever gone that soft on dirt.

Yes, i use the same or 1 softer on dirt... But the rear is also soft, and a car should be balanced. I have never liked the blue/black front losi springs setups. Soft front spring seems to be calmer at high speed steering and gives you more mid and exit steering (not sure if this strokes with theory, but that's just what I believe

)

I will give that a try. I'm new to the X6 and am trying lots of different setups at moment. Have you tried e-speed hangers?

Weird how the setup sheet opens on my phone but none of the data shows up, it's just a blank setup sheet. Boo.

Ok try again, I resaved it. The original one was an editable setup, now I replaced it with a pdf with the fields baked in.

I owned an X6 years ago and tried it back then but didn't really like it. I think it fits in the setups from ellis. I also had a c4.1 and the first thing I changed was to drill an extra row of inner camber link holes to make the link a more standard size again (longer).

It works now, thanks.
I run AE shocks silver all round but will try softer fronts and my car has E speed hangers but I think I'll make up some spare longer camber links and do some back to back testing. Might try standing the rear shocks up a bit more as well.
Cheers

Most Family members enjoy testing and experimenting, working on their cars during the week with new ideas and trying them out at the track. We think it's what makes the whole hobby fun, and have tried to develop a car that is extremely tunable and easy to work on.

Hope you are having fun, Phil!
