h1 susp. stuff, radius rods, LCA's

[ghettoracer]

9.4 Chassis and Body Preparation- H1 Only

p) Aftermarket control arms of exact OEM length and OEM location of pickup points may be utilized.

can radius rods (like Full-Race, Z10, LCON) be used on EG/EK chassis which didn't have radius rods originally?

 

OmnipowerUSA produced forged al. front LCA which is same dimension as stock. Per 9.4p it is legal correct?

No for Radius rods.

 

Yes for Omnipower LCA's!

I don't know about the others, but the Full-Race set-up includes a new crossmember (on the EF's) and the rules do state that a stock CM must be used...

By adding radius rods "traction bars" to a car that did not come with radius rods from Honda is changing the suspension geometry by adding additional arms & link points. This is not legal.

[ghettoracer]

hmm, it doesn't quite change the geometry. more like adding stability to the front susp... i'm not sure how much of a different it makes in handling in reality. i'll test it on my street delsol soon.

Didn't I already state it's illegal?

 

The rules do not say you can change the CM or add extra radius rods, so you can't plain and simple.

If the rules don't say you "can" do something, then you can't!

LOL,

 

talking to Frank is like talking to a brick wall. He has his own understanding on what should be legal as it suit his needs

Hmm because it is the way you type.

 

you didn't say you would like to see it be legal, or wanted to submit a request. Some one from the rules commitie said it is illegal. Because you disagree with them doesn't make it legal.

 

And i highly doubt you are going to see them legal. They don't proved any saftey benifit, and it could certainly start the slippery slope of changing geometry and adding and relocating suspension points.
