I guess we'll see how dedicated road race suspension does at the strip...

With enough traction it won't really matter. I'm pretty much slammed on 350z s-techs and no issues.

Yea but some squat is desired, I'm guessing his suspension is ridiculously stiff,, hopefully it all works out. Either way it is shaping up to be a good day at the track, I am pumped

I still have 700# springs in the rear right now....300ish pounds heavier than the s-techs. My front shocks have almost no travel....I bet if I had like 300# springs in the back I could lift a wheel or maybe both on the launch.

I'm not worried about rubbing or anything...the camber (-2.5) in the rear is my worry.

Going earlier this time to take advantage of the morning air meet at MD house 8am. I get retuned at RT Friday afternoon.

Mike that puts us at the track around 830-845. If you are there before us I'll bring the wheels to you before I tech.

Already talked to AJ I pick up the slicks Friday night.

My car has 108k miles....and gets abused like crazy. It burns oil, makes all kind of noise, occasionally hiccups fire out the back, but she chugs along.

I know. I just want to go easy on her. Im hoping to hit some cones with the front of it this spring. Maybe I will do a run or 2. Ive never dragged before so I dont want Bert to make fun of me.

Seems to me that auto-x put more stress on a car than drag as long as you're not doing a F&F clutch drop and wheel hopping it all the way down the track. Just don't be stupid and have some fun learning to shift, which you can then apply to your auto-x skillz.
