I can post up what procomp set my car up to. Its a striker so the same chassis, as you know.
Track days ARE the best thing since sliced bread, until I get a supercharger that is!

I'd be interested in that too,.. I am planning to get it done at some point, but it would be useful to have a starting point
thanks

Hi Guys.
Last time I spoke to Steve at Fury Sports Cars on this very subject he told me the following figures.
Front Camber -3/4 to -1 deg.
Front Toe in 2 - 3 mm
Rear Camber Zero to -0.5 deg.
Rear Toe in - Zero
Hope this helps.
The Answer for everything, but never the last word....

Found the set up data from when your car was re-built
Weight without driver 486Kg
Front rear split (with 70Kg driver) 46:54
Front corner weights approx 130Kg each
Rear corner weights approx 150Kg each
Front toe in 3mm total
Front camber -1/2 to -1 degree approx
Front caster 5 degrees approx
Front AVO shocks (5 clicks)
Rear toe in 3mm total
Rear camber -1/2 to -1 degree approx
Rear Protech shocks 275Lb springs
5 clicks bounce, 3 clicks rebound
I know that the rear dampers were stiffened up from those settings

Mine is set up for fast road and track days so a bit of compromise in some areas...
Alignment.
Front: 0 10' toe-in (1mm) (I tried a bit of toe-out but didn't like it on the road and didn't feel any better on turn in)
Rear: 0 05' toe in (0.5mm)
Camber.
Front -1 30'
Rear -0 45' (tried more and less of both but that feels the best compromise)
Castor 5deg
Can't remember ride heights
Rake 20mm
Corner weighted to equal diagonals (tried equal fronts but didn't like it)

A lot can depend on tyre compound and structure.
What tyres you you run Simon? I'm assuming a15 radials?

And with regards to the rebound damping. Was that 3 clicks clockwise from minimum or counter clockwise from maximum? (Assuming they are 13 click
protechs)
As 3 clicks from minimum rebound damping is quite a lot of rebound for a sprint car. Id give it a bit more rebound damping at the back which should
make it squat a bit better from launch!
Only thing is you may lose a touch in weight transfer under braking if you go nuts on the rebound damping!

thank you guys for all the reply's this will be a great help and thank you Douglas for the specific car info.
I am changing to 13s and yes Dan will be running A15 radials. I have always run crossplys and I think radials have a different camber setting so will
have to look into this.

They do need a complete different setup to crossply's Simon, but only with regards to cambers.
A proper setup would see huge gains I'm certain. Especially when chasing 100ths

Take it to RAW I took my Striker IRS to them( after it had been set up by another well respected company) the result was
fantastic.
Martin has been working on these chassis for years and really knows his stuff. After the set up a mate of mine
took my striker around cadwell ( British Grasstrack group 8 Champ ) and said that it was one of the
best handling cars he had ever driven, and that if he had done so a month earlier, he would have bought
a Striker instead of the Westfield!

Don't know where I got the 05'/0.5mm rear toe-in from (must have been having a moment) but it should read 20'/2mm
All just been reset after messing with my rack. I finally (7years) got around to checking bump steer and found it changed by almost 3deg each side
which may explain why it was twitchy on uneven roads. Moved the rack with spacers/brackets and it now (virtually) doesn't move. Not had
chance to test drive yet though.
I'll report on what/how I did it when I get time.
