Hi
I've noticed this a while back but it's only starting to annoy me now.
It's seems something hasn't went together correctly on my build.
The front end of the plank below the car is touching the ground.
I know the front end should be lower than the rear but I'm looking a approx measurement of other builds so I know when I've corrected mine.1mm or so?
Thanks in advance.

I'm affraid under the regulations that is an F.I.A disqualification

D.N.Q!!!

The only thing I can think of that would affect the front height would be the suspension set up

Have you got any pics?

Mines not far from what your's is and i'm ok with it. You could make a few adjustments to the front suspension arms to raise the nose of the car but be carefull not to cause damage.

Yes.
Think ill live with it.While I was inspecting the suspension I noticed that I had the wrong tyre on my front hub.Crying So I've set about changing them around.Removing my Ls and Rs and also correcting the stripe which i knew was wrong into the right grove by flipping to opposite side.
Still touches the ground though.If its not far from yours Spencer that'll do me.BigGrin
