ill need to remind myself of that when I post the slowest time of the day...

 

I doubt you will be.....highly.

 

mike you may need to drive my car once to show me the time it should be doing lol

 

I can't this time, but I'll co-drive it at a future event if you are interested. I am probably going to leave shortly after my afternoon runs to make it to Baltimore before the WVU game kicks off.

 

yea if you want to I dont mind you driving it.

I am only there for the morning session too so I will prob be gone before you.

 

Maybe we can set-up a co-drive at one of the test and tunes coming up. I could probably help you with suspension set-up as well.

 

Sounds good Hopefully im free one of the days of the test and tunes

 

We'll swap over my R-comps too.....if you want and see what she can do on those!

The 285's may rub in the front on your car though

 

you have fender work done?? Cuz my front isnt really low at all... i didnt rub when I had the 0 offset 245 on a 9" rim

 

Well....I don't know what the clearance issues will be with your willwoods...I have to run a 15mm space (wheels are +35) to clear my stoptechs. My front may actually lower than yours, but no I don't have any fender work. Keep in mind though that my car has almost no body roll.

 

i have almost no body roll either mike and I have a 15mm spacer up there as well... Im on coils with hotchkis sways and powergrid endlinks with coils set to full stiff I think 10k or 12k spring rate

 

Barnabas you're suspension setup is perfect! Just get to know your car in a tight controlled environment. Do you have an LSD?

 

Quaife LSD, nismo finned cover with solid bushings and dual diff brace

 

I still use the crap stock lsd. Nismo LSD and hoosiers are probably good for 2.5 seconds on a 45 second course. They'll be in for the scca season opener next year. Probably go to a much heavier spring next season as well.....

Barnabas, the tires will be your major limiting factor....besides the drive .

 

Why Nismo Mike??? Why not ATI or quaife???


And yes tires will be a huge factor once I get down navigating the course... I have toyo Tr1's on right now 285/245

I dunno what path I will go with tires yet... But I think I may just try to get these to last through next year with paying for the wedding and such and then the year after decide what I wanna do with the car and buy appropriate tires.

 

On top of those changes....this came today. 1 3/8" solid sway bar.......WAY stiffer than the hotchkis piece I use now.


The Nismo and OS Giken are the best for autox at least in my opinion. The OS is almost 600 bucks more and you still have to buy the stub shafts. The Nismo includes them and is easier to adjust.

 

ahh ok sounds good!! see you tomorrow im off work now and headed home... see you around 730-745

 

See you in the morning.

 

Dammit! I'm here at work!! Wish me luck guys!!

 

Still at work!!! UGH!
