Powers, with a stronghold on 5th place in the rankings wont be making any changes for this round.
Kado, ranked 28th made a small change to the caster and toe settings and also added a complete aeromotive fuel system with a small ethanol cell to cure the fuel cut that caused intermittent engine performance during seattle's competition. He is more dialed than ever. It is absolutely amazing how much control and traction his machine has. This is the rookie that is most poised to annihilate seasoned pros as he makes his way up in the ranks quickly.
The two new guys on our team for vegas are Matt Field ranked 19th, and Ross Petty ranked 17th. Both were in need of some competitive modifications to their existing s-chassis nissan pro drift machines. We were thinking for a while about what we can do next to push the boundaries of our super angle steering knuckles. Both these guys helped test and critique our latest quest to aim at the maximum angle. We shared our theories on how to make the new parts the best they can be. It was nice to get some pro feedback. Collectively we are helping each other reach our goals.
Matt Field is now running MAX PRO coilovers, FLCA, tenrods, RUCA, Sub frame risers and the new MAX PRO knuckles.
Ross Petty is running MAX pro knuckles, FLCA, tenrods, adjustable wheel spacers.
