    If you can't read this power train setup article and get the job done, you probably shouldn't be trying to build a car. It's not that complicated.

    Good article, confirms what I have believed all along. Unfortunately if the structure does not allow for adequate adjustment to achieve these parameters what do you expect me to do, redesign and rebuild it myself? I do not have that expertise which is why I purchased a kit rather than try and engineer it from scratch!

    If you haven't actually built a Factory Five kit, and in fact have been openly critical of every offering and holding up your own personal build as a shining example, probably best not to dispense build advice. Especially when it's condescending and borderline insulting. It's not that complicated.

    Thank you Edward. I was really biting my tongue with my reply. You know I was already noticing that throughout this thread (and many others) your advice has been the most thoughtful, helpful, and professional. I (and I am sure MANY others) really appreciate it and would like to say a personal and public thank you.
