+1! I like that mfain!

Short story on this topic...back before I knew anything about this weird roll center thing A friend and I were working on a Fox with an MM subframe, which had two heights of pick-up points for the LCA's. The car was lowered and had a set of drop spindles on it from Racecraft. Not knowing a whole lot about what we were doing at the time, looking at the angle the LCA's were at we, thought there could be camber gain in travel by moving the LCA's to the upper hole so the arms would get longer as the suspension compressed.

We learned a serious lesson that day at the track. Roll center was too high and the car had no front end grip. Now that being said, had we had softer springs to allow the front suspension to travel further it might have worked out. Would want to measure it all out if I did it again, now that I know better.
