Sway bars make a noticeable difference. ^^ Mine are on the middle setting (medium) stiff also.

I already have H&R coilovers on the car, albeit they are set too low to be optimized right now. They've only been on the car for a year and a half and still feel nice and toight. If I get shocks, then I have to revert back to springs, and I wouldn't expect to see much if any improvement over what I have now? This is why I'm leaning towards sways. Or do you think some race springs coupled with some Koni's would be far superior, although I thought it was the other way around? Thanks for the input guys!

Good to hear! Medium stiff seems to be the consensus. Looks like the stiff settings are too stiff, unless used with an equally stiff spring?

Went out to TMP Cayuga yesterday. I couldnt get it out of my head what times I could manage without much traffic, so I thought a Wednesday eve would be pretty dead, and it was. No changes to the car from last time minus the 210lb passenger.

Pulled off a 124.59 timed using Harry's Lap Timer.

I thought I would have to do a few mods before cracking into the 124's so needless to say Im very please with the result. Do I make the leaderboard now?

That's pretty good!

We will have to meet up there one more time. Maybe October.

GTRob just needs to update the list. Still missing some DDT times and your times from TMP. PM him and he will

Thanks Mike! I was actually really surprised. I'll post the visit as soon as I open a YouTube account.

As long as my work schedule allows for it I'm game in October. I have to keep an eye on that tire I had shaved. I'm hoping to get one last day out of it, but I think it'll be okay.

Are you bringing the Z out to CSCS at all? I've always wanted to see your car go. I'm hoping to hit 1:21s this time with camber arms up front finally.
I've also been watching some others and I'm going to make some line and shifting adjustments.

CSCS Finale was almost a total write-off.

But in practice I technically set a lap of 1:21.59

I had to move the finish line to the back straight due to traffic encountered

I am going back. I have 1:20's in it!!!!!!

You went to Cscs? Did not see you.
Sash•Z and the GTR what an amazing last race. Well done both of them.
Then the beauty ferrari went onto the track and it was kinda a big waist of rubber, I think he forgot those cars have a race button lol

DamnIcouldn't find the right footage.

So all I have is GPS data animation, and I overlaid it on some random video footage from practice where I am spazzing out like usual.

Sasha makes EVERYONE look slow considering his time is the course record! That time is just nuts!! If you think about all the cars that have been out there, thats pretty impressive.

Mike, any further thought on a date? Im dying for one last run before the season is up. The date on Fri Oct 12 at Cayuga is looking pretty good to me right now.
