Re: CCDA external roll cage rules

^^ would be good business for local chassis manufacturers. And for those who want to be competitive in Ultra4 without building a second truck. As long as body specs are tight, starting with bonnet remaining full width, so vehicles remain identifiable.

Re: CCDA external roll cage rules

Thank you Pricey et al for all your hard work sorting this out. The main objective should be to ensure the highest level of safety for those competing into the future, even if that means some unhappy campers in the short term.

Having said that, I hope when the specs are finalised ours is okey dokey ...

Bleeding CNC cutting brakes.

Does anybody have any special techniques to bleed CNC cutting brakes when plumbed inline between master cylinder and rear brakes?

Or has anybody had issues with rear brake pressure using the footbrake when they have a cutting brake plumbed in?

They are obviously a high point in the brake system ...

Re: School me on this Master Cylinder

The lower cylinder is the proportioning valve. Was hoping to bypass that. basically though, if both cylinders are the sme size, I should be able to run rear brakes off one, and front brakes off the other, with a hose joining both cylinders via the top fittings. ??
