I notice the following item in the news section:

"Formula TKM 2-stroke classes are likely to move onto castor/camber adjustment from 2013 as Tal-Ko Racing makes its proposals of updates for next year.

Proposals indicated to the ABkC suggest switching to castor/camber adjustment to make it easier for drivers in other classes to switch to TKM, and also to make set up changes cheaper by enabling an adjustment rather than new stub axles.

TKM boss Alan Turney explains: "We have resisted against this until now to protect drivers with older style karts. But it is now six years since our last homologation and there are few old karts about. Hence we feel now is the right time to switch over. But that said we will be interested to hear feedback from drivers."

What are the significant number of people running Jade chassis expected to do? I can't see a simple way of adding camber / caster adjustment as the king pins locate directly into the yolks with no room for eccentric pills - unless I'm missing something that is...
