[DeTomaso] Fw: Some tech analysis of Classic LeMans 08

[mark skwarek]

Regarding the upper A-arm modification by Pat Mical & Johnny Woods, it results in the ball joint being able to be moved back by 0.75 ".  I had Johnny do mine and can confirm that high  speed tracking is great.

It appears that Johhnys mod gives 19mm extra:
