So I forgot to add the pics of the camber mount... Nothing special, just an old shock tower that's been cut down.

Warehouse 3... It's new to this location. Just opened a couple months ago. Prolly around 15000 sq. ft building. Track is 100 x 60 or so. :)

We have a few tracks... I could literally race every night almost.

That's why you have a track in your back yard, :)

Track report... So far in practice the car feels really good. I am running stock tonight to work the bugs out. It's slow... Stock is slow... Anyway, I have switched to a standard rear shock tower. The droop was just too much for this track. So I was running white springs in back, have changed to greys with 1.6 pistons and 30 weight oil.

Up front I have 32.5 wt oil with 1.6 pistons... Black springs... I haven't decided yet if the front is to soft yet, but I may be at 35 wt oil by the end of the night. With PL scrubs in soft I think... In back I have 1.0 suburbs clays...

I'm also using BK sauce... Yes... dirts sauce. He is making some here and there and selling it for $10 a bottle. It's awesome stuff!

Stripped screw holes... Don't know how or why. But I have to run my steering arms tight because I didn't bring another one.

So round 1 I qual'd 3rd with a 12/5:21... Car was good just dumb mistakes... Had a bit over steer, added a little toe out to dumb it a little. Also went to heavier oil... 35 up front and 32.5 in back.

Image

Round 2 I was on a 12/5:12 pace on last lap had a 7 second crash. My bad. Ended with a 5:19. Still 3rd... Best part was I got to run with 1st and second for a while in this one and I know I can hang with them as long as I can keep it on its wheels. The thicker oil helped a ton.
