ride height?
I was wondering what kind of ride height most of you are running. I my fairlane I have it lowered down around 4" of clearance (110" or so
wheelbase) it does scrape a little on some speed bumps and parking lot entrances (jsut the exhaust)
so I was wondering how low some of you were and if you have scraping issues.

-- looking to put a offy tripower intake on soon

5" and 93" wheelbase on mine.
Not driven yet though so no useful feedback.

4" and 96" wheelbase.
I have a nasty curb straight off my driveway that my 2000 Jetta scrapes going down (I take it sideways), but the Bala doesn't scrape at 4"

mine sits at 4 inches by chance, im gonna raise it an inch at the back cos the area is peppered with speed bumps.

I'm going for 5" on my McSorley 7+4 chassis. I'm not sure of the wheelbase but it is basically standard RC book length. I
can't really go any lower as my sump sits about 1.5" below the chassis underside although I hope to shorten the sump slightly to keep a
clear 4" of clearance from the ground.
Cheers,
Craig.
