Subject: Re: Rotoflex vs. Camber Compensator

Bill,
I have retrofitted my 70 Spitfire with rotoflex and a swing spring.  It
was 
not a straight forward conversion and took some time since I had to weld

brackets and use the Triumph Tune shock conversion.  The e-brake was an
issue too.  
If you have a GT frame I would certainly recommend the rotoflex over
anything 
else.  I use my Spit for autocross and all other set ups I tried
including 
anti roll bars resulted in the Spit "lifting a leg" with only one wheel
on the 
ground in tight corners at speed.
Cheers,
Darrell


Darrell,
What could you possibly gain by combining the rotoflex with a swing
spring?  It would seem that by using a spring that is allowed to rotate
side to side, you are reducing the roll stiffness of the car and
detracting from the handling characteristics.  

Personally, I don't even like the swing-spring concept by itself and
feel that the camber compensator is a far better fix to the wheel tuck
problem.

But I am interested to hear your thoughts on the combination of the two
technologies.
