For those who run on Sebring and equivalently rough tracks what is a good starting point for torsion bars and spring rates on a -4 with DOT R type tires and Koni Sports.
I have done a search and see a lot of advice from West Coast drivers. Also spoke to the experts at Elephant (F 23mm R 250#) but again they have limited rough track experience. Thanks in advance! |

The cool thing is that SVRA's rules seem to mirror the SCCA E-prod and F-prod /4 rules fairly well. So in theory you could build a car for SVRA and have fun and occasionally do some SCCA events, where you may or may not be competetive. If you want to see what a /4 is capable of in it's best prepared SCCA form, check out Racer Chris' (TangerineRacing.com) car. He has one of the most competitive /4s out there and is able to keep up with most Miatas. But he's put a ton of hard work into that car to do so and he's a pretty durn good driver too.
