Rob, I thought you were going to sell the car??? I think Grant had the car set up fairly well. I think your old used tires were worse than my newer used tires. You would have been a lot faster on new or at least newer tires. Tires are everything!! If you decide to buy radial tires, you're going to have to put in a lot more camber on both ends.
Hope you keep the car! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

I'll run it until I don't use it again, and then I'll let it go... maybe fix it up some more... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) Rob, the last time I drove the car the only thing I felt it needed was to freshen the LSD. At the Shootout it was allowing the inside tire to spin off of tighter corners. It needs new tires and possible an alignment for AX. For the Shootout it had track alignment and new tires...that was it. We did pretty well with it that way. That is a top 5 GGR AX car all day! Run Hoosiers and get an alignment, make sure the LSD is functioning properly and that car will fly! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Check with Grant, I am sure he can tell you everything that is there so you can adjust to your preferences |
