ok, just got back from the AX in alameda. great event, great (fast and loooong) course.
andrew blyholder smoked the whole competition (again), i don't think anyone came even close. my last minute suspension tweak worked out better than expected, car turned in nice. but, of course, now i'm having a new problem ... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/screwy.gif) every time i unload the driver side (left hand turns), that rear wheel just spins. like tire smoking spinning. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/icon8.gif) even in 3rd gear. even in not so tight corners. slight unload and up go the RPM but i'm not moving any faster. obviously, i'm loosing quite some time there. remeber that i'm running the 9" good year schlicks. my 2.0L should *not* be able to spin those at will in 3rd gear. now what?

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ohmy.gif) and only until the very last run of the day did i finally beat him ... way to go grant!

no rear bar, 180lbs progressive springs in the rear, bilstein shocks ...
front is all '84 carrera with stock 911 boge shocks and a 22mm hollow sway bar set to full soft ... right hand turns are fine as the driving wheel is under load ... i believe more rear spring is the answer, but that also means a complete new shock setup as well. ($$$) ... i was toying with the idea of adding a rear bar instead which should be good for about 30lbs of additional rear spring ... ah craps, will this ever end?
