74, stock 2.0, stock front swaybar - no rear bar, stock front inserts, may mount an older set of adjustable Koni's I already have on the back, either way 100 lb springs, 195/65 Eagle GT's.
Looking to have fun, not too worried about much else, but I have a few basic setup questions: I'm going to chalk the tires, but what pressure should I start at? Full tank, half tank or empty tank? Spare tire in or out? The konis need to be adjusted out of the car - soft, medium or firm (keep in mind I will have to live with it on NH streets too)? Should I overfill the oil a bit? If so how much? What am I missing? Thanks, Scott |

My usual nemesis' weren't there, but I slid to a sixth place finish anyway (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)
It was a fun course though and I did have some good runs, I just didn't manage to step up as much as others did during the second set! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Here is how close we are running with PAX (times are rounded): 6th 30.9 5th 30.8 4th 30.7 3rd 30.6 2nd 30.5 1st 29.8 (ok we all got smoke by the guy in the S4) Hopefully I can make it down to CFR before the next one and borrow some tires... EDIT: Also, am I correctly grouped for PAX in C Stock? I ask because on straight time I was 3rd fastest in the novice class, but PAX backed me up 3 spots. Also, FWIW a mustang convertible that I have been beating all along put on tires and is now beating me in PAX (still slower real time)... |
