Iv'e checked out the picture on Thunders web site, and that is why I was wondering about making a few plates to adjust the front of the TA if needed. But when looking at the Madmad TA I just don't see anything that looks like a slider, even though the discription says it has one.
The slider is the front mount. The front rodend slides into the bottom bar its is the same principle as the pivot except you can lower or raise the front of the arm to change instant center.
Case in point. This weekend we took Bradys BBC with a procharger out and we moved the front of the t/a up to make it level with the ground. At the hit the car would pick up the front end about 8" and roll out. By the 60ft the car started spinning the tires. We moved the arm back downhill in the front and the car did the same thing at the launch but kept the nose up after the 60ft cone and stayed hooked up all the way down track.

And THIS is why I have a Full MADMAN kit sitting here.
Tired of the car hooking then letting go down the track.
