Stanford was having a parking lot special on lowering, alignments and corner balancing today. Thanks to Nathan my car is riding a lot lower and sporting more negative camber and its nicely corner balanced. Nathan's going so fast he has to help some of us keep up with his blazing times.

Thanks again for all your help Nathan! I owe you more than a few beers for all your help today. The car already feels better and I cant wait until the next AX!

the only bad thing i see about lowering these cars is that once the front arms are level or the balljoint is higher than the suspension center, the camber goes from negative to positive. when going into a corner stock, the suspension geometry makes negative camber as the corner increases. When its too low, you start making positive, of course if its negative enough, it just makes it less negative closer to 0camber. Sometimes bigger brakes ARE the key.
