3 wheel question

[markm]

Hi fellas,
In reading here, seems most of you lift the right front as opposed to lifting the left. What is the difference and why would the RH be better?
Please excuse the question if it is covered elsewhere here but, my son and I were rookies last year.
However, we did make the state finals but, placed 34th out of 65 cars.

One is not better than the other, it's just builder preference.

Markm,

Doesn't matter which front wheel you lift.... some would say if you are right handed it is easier to hold the car with your left hand and adjust the steering (for your Rail Rider) on the front dominate wheel with your right hand... this would make your lifted wheel on the left and DFW on the right. Opposite if you were left handed.

As mentioned it does not matter, but here's a simple guide

If you stand on the left of the track to tune your car, then lift the right wheel; if you stand on the right to tune your car, then lift the left wheel.

If you like to tune your car looking at the starting gate then reverse the above.
