ABSTRACT:
A driver controlled wedge and track bar adjustor for a race car. A controller located inside the driver's compartment of the race car is coupled to a drive which is operatively coupled to adjusting rods. The controller may be configured to initiate a predetermined amount of rod adjustment. Wherein the operative coupling may consist of a system of pulleys and belts and the like which transfer the motion of the drive to the adjusting rods. The adjusting rods are already present in many race cars and are used to adjust the wedge or track bar of the vehicle during pit stops. A visual display may also be attached which shows the state of the wedge or track bar.
