b'TECH TIP PAGETech Tip 58: What is Quik-Tune & Why Do You Need It?Face itif tuning adjustmentsare hard to do or take too longthey usually dont get made & we suffer through a less thanoptimum handling race car. RSRT Quik-Tune features are the solution!Ron Sutton was a winning crew chief for almost 40 years. He knows tuning on race cars can betime consuming, So he engineered all the RSRT track & race cars to be quicker, easier &predictable to tune, so you can dial in your car at any track, under any conditions.For the rear roll center, RSRT Watts link or panhard bar, you can tune your rear roll centerheight, with a 1/2" ratchet, to balance the handling of your race car in seconds, not minutes.You simply open the trunk & adjust the rear roll center up for more front grip, or down formore rear grip. With our Quik-Tune Watts link, put a 1/2" ratchet in the center adjuster cone &turn it right to lower the roll center or left to raise it. You have 6 of range at the tip of yourfingers.With our Quik-Tune double adjustable panhard bar, you have two adjuster cones. 4 range onthe driver/chassis side & 6 range on the passenger/axle side. In addition to the option ofadjusting both evenly, if you need more rear grip & less front grip turning one way & morefront grip & less rear grip turning the other way, you can do that with panhard bar adjustments.If you need more rear grip on left hand corners, adjust the driver side lower. If you need morerear grip on right hand corners, adjust the passenger side lower. If you need more front grip onleft hand corners, adjust the driver side higher. If you need more front grip on right handcorners, adjust the passenger side higher. Combinations of these also work well.Using the same 1/2" ratchet, you can adjust ride heights, corner weights & cross weights onRSRTs Quik-Tune jack screw coil-over shock mounts. Plus, this does NOT affect the bumpstop gap or travel range of the shocks.Adjusting the ride heights, front or rear heights individually & dialing in the optimumcrossweight on the scalesor at the trackis much quicker & easier with Jack-ScrewAdjusters on each coil-over. No more getting down in the suspension to loosen the lock collaron the coil-overturning it with a spanner wrenchbusting some knuckles during the processand retightening the lock collarmultiple times until you get it right! Simply loosen the 1-1/8 jam nut on the jack screw, put a 1/2" ratchet in the top of the jackscrew adjuster, then turn it right to raise the car or load that corner more. Turn it left to lowerthe car or load that corner less.Raising or lowering the whole car, or just the front or rear, has never been quicker or easier.Same with adjusting the crossweight to increase total grip on corners of one direction, whilesimultaneously reducing total grip on opposite corners. Need more front & rear grip on left hand corners & less on right hand corners? Adjust the leftfront & right rear jack screws down to load the tires more & adjust the right front & left rearTHE EXACT SAME AMOUNT, but up to load the tires less. Ride heights will not change.Need the opposite effect?Do the opposite. 516'
