Pretty new to the sport and having no luck finding info on a setup sheet for this 8 position camber and caster adjustment on my Crg Black Star. If anyone is familiar with this setup and can help me out that would be great.

Thanks Wink

Welcome aboard!!!

Do a google search, I don't believe there's a published chart like the 4 position, but it's the same concept just with more many options.
It's an eccentric, so all you're doing is rotating the king pin off center from one location to another.

Not very familiar with it but CRG has a pretty good setup guide. With that being said, All caster/camber settings are universal across the board as far as what settings provide what caster/camber. Meaning all karts are at full caster with the top of the KP tilted back and the bottom tilted forward. Same with camber. Top out and bottom in is full positive camber.

And like Chris said, same as with the 4 position adjusters, just have middle settings too.

Pretty sure I have something buried in notes somewhere. When you say 8 position you mean the 4-hole pills correct?

Send me an email, then I can forward it to you if you like. Its a pretty good setup sheet for your chamber and caster percentages. Wink
