Um... rake angle... ehh.. Doug any help here? I know it is either 16.7 or 12.7 degrees, but which one... I'm clueless.

There are other videos of me driving the car. The halloween one I am driving in the dirt and the last few passes of the car. I am also driving it at first in the test drives.

It started to rain pretty good that day and it began to get had to see out of the goggles so any hard driving was risking it. Plus, I didn't want to get it all muddied up.

This video wasn't the greatest. Maybe I should have taken off my gloves? It is hard to find the zoom, and the digi cam is very slippery with winter gloves on. Not to mention it is hard to hold still.

[Doug Heim]

is the rake angle the upswept part of the nose? And if so do we include the angle the chassis sits on the ground?

[trojan]

Doug, yes


Eng: no anti-dive

[Doug Heim]

Thanks Troj... I came up with 19.5*

Chassis sits 2.7* on the ground
the upswept nose is 16.8*

Cool!  Thanks, that is quite a bit of rake.  Is that not on the drawings?  Don't they give an angle to cut the tubes at?  Or does it just tell how high the front tube is in relation to the lower frame?

There is an angle in the drawings. It's 16.7-.8 for the bars, but the drawin shows the whole chassis tilted back 2.7 degrees too.
