Hey guys, this is a hard message to write because I have to admit to a wheel installation mistake. I made a car with RS wheels and accidentally put them on backwards- that is with the anti-friction strip out instead of in. The problem is that it is tuned perfectly and it is ready to ship to the next race. I don't want to risk damage to the car by removing and re-installing. They are in tight! I think it's tuned as good as I can get it- that is no wheel migration to and from the heads-body on a test board. Since my Front WB is less than the Rear WB I doubt that the rears will touch the rail. Will having the FDW reversed cost me? The dilemma is: Should I race it as is or make the changes and risk the damage? I appreciate any and all suggestions!

If your happy with the tuning of the car, then I would leave it alone. I run the RSN wheels backwards on the rear of my pro mods from time to time. No theory about it, but I just experiment from time to time.
